Quilt you have always wanted to make
I am cutting back a bit on making small quilts. I got rid of about 6 baby quilts and 1 full size quilt today. I need to clean house so to speak, and I only want to make that one dream quilt. What pattern would you all make if this was your last quilt?

I've always loved the Storm at Sea. I am drawn to the illusion of curves. And as much as I have admired log cabins, I have never made one. That's probably something I should accomplish sometime soon.

I love the Baltimore Album quilts - the variety is vast, and all those tiny little applique pieces stop me from attempting it now. Or maybe a one inch Grandmother's Flower Garden. I love those little hexigons.

Another vote for NYB. I might try this year, probably a wall hanging size.
Two other patterns I have always wanted to make, more for sentimental reason than difficulty are SAS and Lemoyne Star. Both are about half complete. The SAS was the first quilt I attempted as a teen 35 years ago (ended up in the waste bin). The Lemoyne is to replicate a wedding gift my parents received, the only quilt we had in the house growing up and very well loved. I hope to finish both by the end of the year.
