Default Has Anyone Made "Mystic Nights" quilt?

Keepsake Quilting has a kit available to make this quilt. Normally I don't buy kits but I am very attracted to the notion of being able to sit down and start sewing instead of spending weeks (or longer) trying to find the perfect fabric for the color runs, which is what happened in the last bargello I made.

My real question has to do with the instructions. Were they clear and understandable? I've made bargellos before but not a bed size. Do they have you do the entire length of the quilt in one piece, or do they do it in sections, rotate the sections and sew them together?

I have not made this - and generally, while you have enough fabric in a kit - you have very little extra to allow for error.....I would take the questions you have posed here, and submit them to Keepsake Quilting, and see if they can provide you with an answer to most, if not all, of your questions.

​Very pretty but my brain is in a knot just looking at it. I think it would be a hard pattern to keep straight.

I would think the pattern is made in sections the sewn together. It's a beauty.

Wow. I had to look. I love that quilt! I think I might need to buy that pattern now too...
I have not made a quilt from a kit but I've heard some people say they were short on fabric (even without making any cutting errors) and then I've heard others say they had more than enough. I think it depends on who is cutting?
