It's been years since I made anything that wasn't a quilt, so I had to think about each step, but I wouldn't say it was complicated. 2 things -- I chose a fabric that was directional and had to make certain the lettering stayed the same direction (extra thinking) and I have a sewing machine that didn't mind several layers when I was sewing on the binding. The pattern was helpful in keeping track of the directional fabric. Hope this helps!
