I would go with your daughter and pick out some 100% cotton fabrics and maybe a different pattern, stretchy fabrics aren't the easiest to work with, particularly if you're new at it. Save the stretchy stuff for something else or much later.

Don't worry about the back yet - lets get the front together first :lol: The back really gets squared up after the quilting is finished as long as it is straight and has some overhang all the way around before quilting it is workable :thumbup:
