It was pretty quick to piece, about 7 hours of intense work for the cutting and piecing. Had to do it while he was at work and I took a day off since I was doing it as a surprise. It would have been even faster if I could have followed the pattern directions for strip piecing, but since my fabrics were directional I had to cut them a piece at a time.
