Are you a process person or a project person, or somewhere in the middle?
I am a process person. I LOVE breaking the quilting prep into all the individual steps and then I check them off as I go. I don't really care if the project gets finished as longf as I enjoy the process (which is why I generally work towards committed dates or events).
My girl friend is a project person. Her goal is being DONE and she may even skip the fine detail in the prep work just to get to the finish line.
How about you?

I am a project person. Like a lot of other things in my life I do the process part on automatic pilot so I can get to the parts I like the most.
As a child my siblings, who were all boys and I used to fight nightly over who did the dishes etc. Now when it comes to necessary chores I just do it. Obsessing over the less interesting details only takes the pleasure out of the finished product.

I am a project person! I get bored with the necessary parts and start to procrastinate-play computer games when I should be working!!
I am always excited when I get done and get to see the finished project in my case a hotpad or keychain or checkbook cover. I love to see that what I had envisioned has come to life. But the tedious steps I struggle with!

help me decide!
I like the process, or I wouldn't try to make quilts ... on the other hand, I can never get enough projects to try to make myself produce more.
It looks to me like I am a process person ... or <g> maybe I am just the hunter/gatherer type who likes to get the stuff in case I ever get time to work on the projects and the process.

The good news there: we will never be cold!
