This pattern was so much fun to make. It definitely requires the quilter to be precise in their cutting and there are LOTS of pieces to cut, but the Dino’s are just adorable! I would say, if you are a beginner quilter, choose another pattern. This one, while it has no other shapes than squares and rectangles of fabric, requires the quilter to know how to read patterns and make unusual types of piecing. My seam ripper became a much used tool!
