It's really not that bad of a quest if you don't mind the tradeskilling. You can do a few hours here or there to get them where they need to be. As a wizard, that is easier because you can port around. Tailoring sucks, but you don't need to skill up anymore after Wu's becomes trivial (it's easier to farm the components for the shawl again in case there is a failure). Pottery also kind of sucks since you will need skins to make poison vials, but you can buy them in unrest or EC pretty easily
Shawls 1 and 2 are really easy.
Shawl 3 and 4 are also really easy, although snow griffin eggs are somewhat rare.
Shawl 5 sucks, but if you sit around someone camping spiders in Velks and ask to loot the silk threads, it's not so bad. You can quad shardwurms in GD to get bile pretty easily. You can do this while you semi AFK doing other crap.
Shawl 6 also sucks, but the only hard part to get is the siren hairs. They're pretty rare.
Shawl 7 sucks, but everything but the swordfish tooth is droppable. The tooth you can find a druid to help you charm kill the swordfish in SG.
I'd recommend getting 60 first, but you don't need to do the quest all at once. You can farm stuff here and there when you need a break from leveling. I did most of the quest when I was visiting my parents for a week and was bored off my ass.
