Interesting question. This first time round, most things were difficult as everything was new to me including a change of sewing machine halfway through. Not knowing what the consequences were of my choices, or if I got a seam not quite straight or 90 degrees or 1/4" wide. Will it do, or am I better off unpicking it. The fabric always has some flex to it though, so if I'm completely accurate it will give a bit, and if I'm not, it will forgive :-) Don't go thinking a nice square check pattern will make it easy to match up your rectangles ah ha ha ha no.

For my next attempt, I imagine the hardest aspect will be the mitred corners on the binding, how to get them to pop out into sharper corners. I know I need to try cutting and sewing more accurately and squarely.
