I enjoyed constructing this one myself 3 years ago so know you'll love this as well. Don't limit yourself by thinking the background has to be your standard "background" choices. I took a chance when I selected my fabrics and I really liked how it turned out. This one I didn't do the embroidery before constructing the quilt because this was a mystery to me as well. But I liked it when done, and most importantly my Herbie did too because it was made for him. That's all the hints I can give you without giving any more away. So Margo, you won't have to stay up the night before doing your embroidery before class.=) The other thing you can be mulling over is the size you want to construct. I did the lap size (almost said laptop size), but will have info available if someone wants to do a larger size all the way to King.
Ok, here's the yardage for the lap size. If you want to do a larger size of this let me know and I will send you the yardage.
Background 3 2/3 yards
Dark 1 1/4 yard
Medium 1 3/4 yard
I will have the cutting instructions available at Strawberry Patches so that after you pay for the class you will be given the list of strips to cut from each fabric and the supply list of things to bring to class.
We start class at 9am to allow plenty of time to enjoy the project and the day with our friends. Should be a lot of enjoyable time for us all and I look forward to spending the day with you all!

I would say no.
