It's so pretty! I want to make loads of them! I just got a sewing machine...

don't be scared of patchwork! it's easier than it looks.
i mean, you can make it as complicated as you like, but basic patchwork like this is just sewing in straight lines. couldn't be more straightforward - i dare you to try it!
