I made this quilt and just got it back from the LAQ. I don't have the binding on it, otherwise I would post a picture. I didn't have any trouble keeping things in order. Here is what I did (I don't have a design wall). I pinned a small note on each strip that had the number of the fabric according to the pattern. (I used the pattern's layout of fabric). I cut each strip and kept them in their own stack with the number on top. Then I took a large tote lid, and lined all 40 stacks in numerical order. I laid out the first two rows first following the pattern layout and sewed each row. Then I laid out the next row making sure it was the correct number of fabric and sewed it. And so on..... As long as you keep your numbers pinned to each stack and follow the pattern, you should do fine. Individual square alternate, so sometimes it can get confusing. I didn't have to rip anything out, so I guess my system worked. I, too, fell in love with it when I saw it. Good luck!
