Default Reducing the size of a quilt pattern - complicated?

I haven't made a large quilt (60x70) and I'm a bit afraid to at this time. I see so many I'd like to make but I think I would prefer to start with a smaller version, but at the same time, I don't think I'm afraid of the patchwork size but more so the backing and quilting part of it.

How did you overcome this anxiety of putting so much time and money into a quilt then not quite getting the quilting right on a home sewing machine? I know I can sub it out but I'd rather try myself.

If you have any tricks or favorite books or ideas to help get me thru this I will be forever grateful
