I have made only 2, but have loved every minute of doing those quilts. If you can read, you can make. Don't try to make it harder than it really is. Cut your strips, sew them together, and then follow how wide each is to be cut, and sew together as you cut. Be prepared to rip and sew because that is how you get your design. I Made Derek Lockwood's Illusion first and then went to Eileen Wright's book for the second one.
