You're right about tackling a harder pattern... The first one I wanted to do (less than a year ago ) turned out to be a double wedding ring variation. Wife said I couldn't do that as a first and made me do a baby quilt from nine patch. Afterwords, I immediately 'started' the DWR. It now sits in a box because, try as I may, I cannot get the hang of sewing curves correctly.
