I would suggest that you use leftover material and start cutting blocks/ strips in different sizes til you build up your confidence. You could always use the cut blocks/strips to make a scrappy quilt. Have fun.

Maybe try a small project to get started like a table runner or wall hanging!

I am not afraid of cutting fabric. I always worry if I will have enough if I make a mistake and I think some is just procrasting.

There have been times that I have had fabric that I just hate to cute because it is so beautiful! :-)

You are lucky to have your MIL do this for you. Someday soon you will be ready to do it.
