The Victory Quilt book instructions were a bit tedious at times but just slow down and go step by step. Check out the video others have mentioned and save your class $$ for some other technique or pattern that you don't already own.

If you are a beginner, especially, a hands on class can be worth its weight in gold. You will learn so much just in fundamentals. Take the class if you can afford it, and ask the instructor if there are any scholorships if you can't. Its worth it to ask. Try to go if you can. Otherwise, you can learn from the book, its just a little more work

I bought her Orion's Star book and at first glance, it was confusing. I made four practice blocks that ended up as a wall hanging. I mastered her techniques and loved her methods. She is better than any class that you can take. I want to buy her "day and night" book. Keep us informed on your progress.

I was once told "instructions are not to be read, they are to be followed." If you read the first step and do it, then on to the second step and so on will make sense. Give it a try before you spend $65--which you could spend on FABRIC! :D
