    Humm....I've made two lonestars, 3 rebel flag quilts(no pattern had to make it up myself). D9P I've done 3, And then theres many that I've only done once. Like some of the others have stated I like to learn new techniques.

    Same here, so I occasionally say to my self, no more patterns, but then see something I have to have and download another one. Thing is, I never use any of them, just keep on doing Turning Twentys, D9Ps, string and crazy quilts!

    For charity quilts there are a few patterns that I have used many times. For myself, I only want one quilt with a pattern.

    I agree, except for rag quilts or Log Cabin. I could do many of these!

    It depends on how much I like something. I like to try different things but sometimes if I'm in a rush for something I know the pattern so it goes quicker. Sue

    I do make different versions of one pattern -- but color is not the only thing I change, I usually change some of the elements of the quilt as well.

    Once I make something once the challenge is gone. Only the Baltimore blocks do I sometimes use more than once. Such a waste of money since patterns are pricey but I can't design a pattern so I have to purchase them.
