I just finished piecing my Bali Wedding Star quilt. In the instructions, it says to read all the directions before starting. I did this and I was so confused! I honestly think it was easier for me once I started piecing. But I know every person is different. If the instructions seem too confusing, maybe it will help you to just start like I did.

I actually did a small "practice quilt" before I started my "real quilt." I wanted to be sure understood the process before I used my more expensive batiks and risked ruining them. :-) In my practice quilt, I only did 2 color sets for the arcs. I think it turned out fine. If the process of selecting the crazy number of fabric is too overwhelming, just make 2 color sets and I think your quilt will turn out fine. I've seen this quilt made with only 1 color set, and it's still gorgeous!

I'll include a picture of my "practice quilt" and my "real quilt."
