Default Question on Grandmothers Flower Garden - what do you do?

I've fallen in love with the hand sewing that goes with EPP the hexigons and making various versions of the GFG quilt. I've always left the paper in until I have the entire top done. I'm currently working on my first Queen size GFG and attaching the flowers to each other. Because of the size, with the paper left in it is getting unwieldly work work with. I'm tempted to remove all the papers from the flowers and then attach them to each other. My concern is will this work well? Will I end up with all sorts of wonkiness from the hexis getting pulled without the paper to support them.

I'd love to hear what everyone else does and what their experience has been.
