I have done many patterns. The best advice I can pass along is to do some practice blocks so you get comfortable with any techniques that seem challenging. When you look at a completed quilt it can look very complicated but when it is broken down into its simple units they are not difficult to attempt.
Don't ever forget, the people that make all those gorgeous quilts we find too challenging to try were once a novice or as challenged as we are. The difference is, they tried and didn't give up.
The one pattern that I see as a challenge and want to try is the Dahlia. Has anyone made this pattern? Someday I will make one.
