does anyone else have problems using their favorite fabrics?

Yes. There have been a few. One particular piece of fabric took me four years of petting, thinking, comparing with other fabrics, etc, before I figured out exactly what to do with it. Guess what, it looks prettier in the quilt top.

Yes ... I have two pieces of a Hoffman challenge fabric from the mid-90s. Beautiful, bright butterflies that have found a place amid the stacks of butterfly fabrics that I collect. I don't think I will EVER cut that fabric. I DO pet it occasionally....

I have this problem really bad. I have a basket full of B/W fq's that I won't cut. I have about 20 feedsacks that I want to make a quilt from but I don't want to cut them until a perfect pattern appears and I wonder if it ever will.

Yep, my cat fabrics. I love cats and quilting and the combination is just irresistable. However, putting those cute fabrics into a project proves very difficult, unless i'm making something for another cat lover.
