Thanks very much for all your kind comments. The pattern is in Jan/Feb 2016 QM. Please note that there are a couple of cutting instruction errors. You should be able to find the corrections (errata sheet?) on QM's site but here's my correction notes:
Under Lt Orange Solid - piece F should be 1" x 5", and, for piece L you will need only 6 rectangles 1.5" x 8.5", and, you will need 2 rectangles which is marked as BB at 1.5" x 7.5".
Under Teal Solid - you will need 2 rectangles 4.5" x 9.5" which is marked as piece N.
There are a lot of pieces to cut for this pattern but everything went together just fine once someone here helped me find the corrections.
I think I'll make another one of these. You'll probably seen the other "critter" patterns QM has offered over the past 2 years. I plan to do the racoon too.
Please post if you need me to describe again the corrections.
