Looks like a lovely but complex quilt! I can't be much help as I haven't done it. All I can say is break it down into small sections and work on one at a time. Don't let the complexity of the whole overwhelm you. Good luck!

The individual pieces are fairly easy to do (usually 7 in a block.) But when it comes to
doing the 'y' seam...I simply cannot get all the points together and make them fit right.
(20 points coming together is a mess!)
Thanks for the comments. I'll keep working at it for awhile longer.

Boy, that's hard to describe. I have done all the individual blocks. Putting the points together and matching the
colors opposite I am finding it Very difficult to make them so that the colors are right.
I think you'd have to actually be doing one to understand these directions.
All the skiney sides of the block go into a point and meet the other side's points. Wish I could describe it
better but I don't know how!
This is the first quilt I've ever been so frustrated with that I want to toss it out.
