what is your favorite part of quilting?
#32
I like the design process the best. I love sitting there with my graph paper and/or EQ, playing with possibilities. I also love the hunt for the "perfect" fabric for something once I've finally settled on a design. Also piecing, and even cutting is very satisfying.
Pretty much I like everything except basting and binding, and it's not like I hate those steps. They're just my least favorite!

I'm new to the whole sewing and quilting thing so my favorite is learning. I'm currently working on a quilt for my wife and I and am learning a lot about the basics of piecing. I'm also learning through trial and error which fabrics are best to sew with. I definitely don't like working with knits. I'm starting a quilt for my new grandniece where I'm learning about applique and embroidery and when I get far enough along, I'll learn about sandwiching, quilting and binding. I'm also playing with vintage machines and am learning more about those as well.

I have so many UFOs that are completed cut out. I thought cutting was my favorite, but I have to cut a gazillion HSTs and am not liking cutting anymore. I like sewing the pieces together. I don't quilt my big quilts. I only quilt my little ones and don't know what I'm doing, but I can see me liking the quilting part, once I get the hang of it.
