I do one or two whole blocks to get the feel of it and then chain piece all the blocks step by step, with an ironing session after each seam if required. Then, suddenly, when you look up, you have 60 wonderful blocks in no time. Of course, you miss out on the joy of admiring your handiwork after completing each block and adding it to the dispay board. I guwess it depends on how much time you have. In my case it always seems to be less than no time.
