I agree - her books are fabulous - start with page one and go 1 step at a time. Start out with practice fabric
I'd rather spend $ on fabric than classes

Here is a link to a video on Night and Day. This site has several videos not on the Quilt in a Day site.

I made the night & day last year, I'm not good at following pattern, I usually do paper piece for the more complex looking patterns. However, I Was able to work through her book without pulling out my hair. Definitely do a practice with less expensive fabric before you use some you love, and she gives you a way to use the scraps too, which is great cause there is a ton of fabric cut away. The Quilt turned out beautiful and I donated it.

Good luck, tough decision, but again I would give it a try with practice fabric then decide on the class.

Shadoh-I'm one for classes too. I get it alot better and faster, however I watched Eleanor Burns actually demonstrate the making of this quilt in Puyallup, WA last year and it really is easy. I was very comfortable I bought the book to make it. But save your $65 and try it on you own first. There are so many quilters on the board that someone would jump in when you need the help! After all look what $65 can buy today! Ummmmmm more fabric-perhaps? It's a beautiful quilt-beautiful when done with the right colors.

I posted a Day and Night picture on here with some comments about how truly easy it was to follow her great directions with lots of pictures....please check out that thread. I don't think you need a class; just a little patience and take your time with the directions. Honestly, I was impressed at how easy it was to get perfectly matched points!

Have you checked out her free video section on her website where she goes through the making of her quilts? She's probably got that one in one of those listings. That way you can go through it with her stopping & starting the video as needed. That's what I did with the jewel box quilt.

Quilter's Cache has a 12"(finished) paper pieced pattern of night and day.

It isn't a video per say but she does demonstrate the technique when you go to "books", click on Night and Day. Then click on more info. A short video there. After viewing that I decided to buy book last night. I personally think that you can't go wrong with Eleanor Burns books. So detailed and easy to understand.

Treat the book as a recipe - one step at a time. It will come together for you.
