I hadn't done any PPing to speak of, and that was enough of a learning curve for me.

I too hadn't done any PPing and now I absolutely love it! I had never done curves either and still struggle a bit but am getting there. I think also if I was a very beginner beginner :| wouldn't even try this quilt.

A few days ago I joined the Board and I found this thread. I bought the Dear Jane book a few weeks ago and have made 4 blocks so far. I don´t have the software so I have to copy all blocks. I´m also making the Sylvia Bridal Sampler, 40 blocks finished.
