    Quiltin mimi & mayday I am a little of both of you I think as I like to have pictures and instructions but I also like to be shown. Unless I have been shown I find that I have difficulty understanding (reading the pattern) a bit like trying to read a road map for me, I will have everything upside down and back to front.
    It sure is a challenge :oops:

    More than once I have even stapled paper together to show how a block goes together.

    Yes, but I have to say that it does not always work with quilting. That process takes a lot of planning, mapping the design layout and such to make it all fit together well. But I can see the colors, the finished project in my mind without too much trouble.

    Sewing a dress, knitting a sweater, or making a new baby layette is easy. But again, quilting is a much more precise art form.

    If you do not have that ability now, it just might come after you master a few of the basic skills and create a few of your own masterpieces. And if not, well you might just be better at another aspect of creating, whether sewing, painting, working with yarns or writing. They are all works of art! Just have fun with it!!!
