this quilt does not take a lot of room to be organized. I cut fabric and made all blocks in each set and then put this in a baggie and put that aside and then on to the next set of blocks. there are 15 sets of blocks and each set has a specific number of block that are needed for the quilt. It seem like a lot of fabric cutting but it wold be too confusing if you tried to cut al fabrics at the same time. One thing that I did was to cut 2 1/2" strips of several different fabric since I did notice that many blocks used that size square/rectangle. Also the instructions are for 1 block and you need 2 duplicate blocks so I had to do math and cut fabric to make 2 blocks.

when putting top together i laid one side out on my design wall and the other on a table. I sewed each section together as I went rather then laying it all out and then sewing it together.
