are you a visual person?

I call it a curse. When I see a pattern, I have trouble visualizing it in other colours and have to lay fabric out before I can "see" it. I'm also quick to notice all kind of visual quirks which is most annoying especially when watching movies!
But, I do like mystery quilts. The instructions have pictures to get me through each step, and I like watching how the quilt progresses. Mystery quilts have taken me into patterns I would not have tried otherwise.

I need the picture for reference!! I think it's funny when you pull out a pattern to make something and the grandkids can't "picture" it in the fabrics or colors they want. I keep trying to explain to them that I can make it in any color their little heart desires! :roll:

Yes, I must have pictures! I try to break new tasks down into very simple steps, and have found that I do well if I just take my time and don't get frustrated...I also talk to myself a lot...my husband says that I'm trying to teach myself! I can see a quilt in a set of colors and picture it in other colors, so, its a give-and-take!
