It was fairly easy to make. I cut all the fabric according to the pattern, stacked by fabric, and went to town sewing the number of each combination required.
I "cheat" a little because I do not trust the HSTs to be exactly the size they're supposed to be. If I need a 3 1/2" square then the squares that I start out with need to be 7/8" larger. Well, I used 5" squares, sewed them both sides of the middle, cut them apart and pressed. I then squared up each HST to 3 1/2". It went together just about perfectly that way.
