Poll Question: What's your favorite part of making a quilt?
We all have our more favorite and less favorite parts of the process of making a quilt. What do you enjoy most, and why? (Please don't answer with what you don't like, so this doesn't become a gripe thread!)
I have found I really love trimming and squaring up the quilt once it's quilted, before the binding goes on. For me, it's like the reward at the end of the road, and my inspiration for getting the quilting part done. I just love trimming away all the junk and having a nice clean edge. That's when the quilt starts to look like a quilt.
I've even been known to trim one or two sides before the quilting is done on the other sides...

my favorite part is when I've got the sections done and can start putting the top together. I just love being able to see how the pattern is coming together. I make a lot of quilts were I have an idea in my head and a plan, but I never know just how it's all going to look until I get to that point.
