i copied the applique pieces onto the paper backed fusible one evening, cut the blocks and fused the applique fabrics on a Saturday morning. Sat & cut out the applique pieces later that evening. Fused the pieces onto the background squares Sunday during House of Blues & started stitching. Stitched 5-6 blocks that day. Had to work that night & next three so later in the week finished stitching the appliqués. Saturday pieced the top, added the borders. Sunday loaded & quilted. Machine stitched the binding to front & took it to work with me. Hand stitched binding during breaks that night.
So-- 8 days start to completion. Fun pattern that looks much more difficult than it is.
