Agree! patience and pinning is your key to success.
While I have not made a quilt, I have made a large apple core runner of smaller cores.
As I worked along, I folded the edges, to find the centre and 1/4 point.
Then matched them to the next ....... pinned and sewed.
The first few were a bit clumsy and awkward and soon enough, I found my groove,
and it was smooth after that!!!
I quite enjoyed it and would not hesitate doing another apple core project ..... sometime!
Good Luck with yours ... and remember, patience and pinning!
