It was actually very easy. I iron the fabric for each piece onto wonder under, then cut out the shape. After that it's just a process of layering and arranging the pieces, and ironing them onto the backing; I use muslin for the backing. Then I use a machine blanket stitch aroung the different pieces and randomly quilt inside the larger pieces. I used iron on batting which made the quilting process easier and prevented bunching. I use a wrapping method of backing, cutting the backing larger than the piece, then wrapping it around to the front to frame the piece. This works well for wall hangings and small projects.
