The Eleanor Burns pattern/book is really very straight forward. If you really question wether or not you should take the class.... Don't . The book has ALOT of great detail instructions .. .and if you got stuck on a few things .. we are here to help you through it.
Her books are some of the best written directions and I always recommend them for quilters who need the most complete directions possible or just lack the confidence to tackle a project.

I find that when I take a class, I will finish making the project.

I already work fulltime and have a rambunctious toddler on my days off. Am I biting off more than I can chew. What would you do?
Will it be something that you look back on and regret (if you don't take the class)?
If so, take the class (esp. if it meets only one or two times). Otherwise, put it on hold. You seem young and (probably) have more time. Just put it on your list of things to do.

I have taken classes and been glad for the learning opportunities, the inspiration, and the comraderie. I tend to finish most class projects.
I have not taken some classes and then later regretted it.
If you can do it ... then do it and count it as quilt therapy.
