Well, here is the first block cut (for a friend's baby quilt). Haven't sewn it yet. I love this Ellie Burns pattern! But boy oh boy, you have to handle everything with kit gloves because it stretches if you look at it wrong! Gee, I can't wait to see how this looks when I'm done! Will post a finished photo.
I have got to think of a quilt pattern to go with this too!

You're doing great! I might suggest using either lots of starch, spray sizing or the new product Best Press. It will help to stabilize your fabrics while sewing.
