I just can't get the fabric going in the right direction and end up sewing both sides to the paper and can't cut off the excess to get the 1/4 inch seams.I have watched all of the tutes on youtube that I can find and each one is different so confusing to try to blend them.

Your quilt is lovely and it inspires me to keep trying. :)
Keep going...You can do it. It can be frustrating. Pieces cut to short, reversed, wrong color...ect. I think it is because I'm left handed and backwards that kept me going....good luck!
