This is a quilt I would love to make too -- I have the book, and the software--just need the nerve! Check out thatquilt.blogspot.com That blog gives comprehensive help on each block. I've done lots of reading on the DJ. Still haven't figured out what colorwave to go with. Good luck on your quilt. This board will answer all kinds of questions for you. I think your biggest challenge is over -- you know what colors you are going to use!!
