Default In over my head!

This is beyond my skill level - and I probably have no business trying these blocks but I Love them so!! I have Quilt Lovely - I have never made my own pattern before. Like a few of the writers here I buy patterns to set myself up for success. On my table right now is Daybreak (Cozy Quilt Co).
The block I can't stop dreaming about is Glitter. I am determined (through all the fear and confusion) - that this will be my next quilt somehow. I photo copied the pattern that was in the back of the book. I figures out that the squares are 1 1/4 (so would be 1 3/4 cut I guess?) and the cones? I just drew on to template plastic and then went around the shape 1/4 inch away - I then cut out the shape on those new 1/4 inch away lines. I did the same for the 4 side pieces. I cut some scrap fabric for all of the pieces....I am terrified to sew them because if they don't come out right.....well this is the only idea I have on how to do it :-( I took a picture of Daybreak (almost finished with that top) - and then a picture of where I am at with the Glitter pieces. I would be forever grateful for any advice, instructions, anything really am I on the right track or is there a way to do this that is....well normal :-)Thanks from Kansas.
