One, never again. I am an avid paper piecer so the components were not hard and ended up pretty perfect. The problems came when sewing the components together. All I can say is it didn't work for me. I eventually salvaged the quilt by making it king size. The extra fabrics helped with the wave. If you do decide to take on one or her quilts, just go one step at a time, go slow, and watch lots of youtube videos. When she was traveling, she came to our Quilt Guild, awesome quilts. Some people who took her class, made the components, then had her help in assembly. Wish I had thought of that.
