    Well the cutting took the longest, after that went pretty fast. Never made the flying geese the way that they do, and so after that I made all big stars first and than the little ones. I didn't mark all the 1 1/2" squares I just zipped right through them and they turned out perfect. I'd say about 10 hours for the complete quilt. Ane my back & side paid for it all night, but so worth it. Thank you.
