Would not recommend.
This pattern makes no sense. If you're making a 22" bed, why cut 20 ". The sides don't count as the size only the height.

Takes a little time to understand
I see that in cutting pieces in contrasting fabric actually means cutting 2 of everything. I do much better with a pattern that has drawings/diagrams in the instructions, but I figured it out using Google and other patterns :-)

Worst written directions ever
These directions don't make any sense.I think there is a mistake when it says only cut one 20 x 20 piece.
