Welcome to the board. I hope you are going to start on an easy pattern before you tackle those you showed to us. I consider myself to be a fairly good quilter but I would never start with one like those. Rail fence, around the world, or just a plain Jane diagonal quilt would be better to start on. Also a baby quilt would give you some experience in making a quilt. Just my opinion, don’t want you to get started and decide it wasn’t what you wanted to do.

Congratulations, I think you have been very smart to start with a class, I didn't and now know (after 2 years) what you will probably learn in 2 months. I want to reiterate the mention that things won't get done as fast as you think. Don't buy fabric before you need it unless you absolutely love it. Glad to see that you have started with squares and not curves. There has not been much said about the scant 1 1/4" seam but I am sure the class will emphasize that. This board is a terrific resource. Welcome aboard.
