I find it easier to control.i marked pattern on top and cut out leaving1/4 inch allowance . Then I lightly spray basted the bottom fabric on in one big square, patter suggested circle but cut back later. It was easier to handle as I had an operation on wrist and was using the quilt as exercise.
It went together very quickly in blocks which I quilted but I had too go over my hand sewing as I didn't like the look
How many hours was dependent on how good my wrist thumb and first finger were playing . I started about February this year.
