actualy the cutting was the hardest part....I didnt know at the time to cut with the grain so the blocks wouldnt bulk up.. My Sister told me later, when she quilted it.... Since it was new to me I did what i thought was right... Now she tells me? I want to say this one took a month to make. with all the applicay--put on first then sew it together.
