Can you name just one?
 

I was just sitting here wondering if anyone has a favorite pattern that they like to use over and over. For me it was the drunkard path. There are so many variations of it and all look different using the same block. I have 2 different ones going now. I also love a variety of patterns and like to try something new all of the time. Hence, I have so many UFO's and projects going. What about you? Do you have one special pattern that you like to make? Or do you think variety is the spice of life?

Lots of ufos and variety.

Hands down its Log Cabin.. for some reason I always have scraps that are 1 1/2 inch width.. perfect for log cabins. So many ways to place the blocks . I make a couple of them a year.

I've never made the same quilt twice, but baskets are my favorite type. I've probably done about 10 different basket quilts, mostly applique, but I've also got Eleanor Burns' Grandmothers Garden in the still piecing pile.
I've also got lots of basket orphan blocks when I was just in the mood to make a basket, or trying out different patterns.

I keep making Attic Windows and Bento Box, even though I have a few others on my to-do list and even have the fabric purchased for them.

I don't have a go to pattern but I love to do quilts with different sampler blocks. I guess I am easily bored. Lol

Variable star over and over. All gifts - I never kept one. I would love to play with all the amazing layouts and variations on log cabin. Only problem is, I really hate to piece the blocks. LOL

I love the Drunkard's Path block, too, but gosh, to pick a favorite would be impossible.

I've made a few Log Cabins and three Wickedly Easy. There are so many more that I want to do, though - I don't want to do any more repeats unless I need to make something fast and I'll drag out Wickedly Easy, again. :)

I have only made the same pattern twice and that is because I bought 2 identical quilt kits for gifts. I like to try something different each time I make a quilt. I think that if I was to make the same pattern again it would be a snowball quilt. I like to do baby quilts and think the snowball block is perfect for baby quilts.

I always use a modified snowball block for baby quilts; only two of the corners are snowballed, the other two corners are just the square itself. There are a lot less seams to match with that design. I use flannel for the piecing, satin binding, and a cuddly fabric on the back. The parents are always so appreciative of receiving these blankets.
I made two Cuddle 4 patch Quilts out of blue and white fabric. The first one was for my son and when my friend went back to India I said I wanted to make her a quilt, what would she like? She wanted the same one I made for my son, so that is what she got of course!
Other than that, they are all different. Oops! I'm piecing two Dear Jane's now (another duplicate). I've done 9-patch, drunkards path, broken dishes, pineapple, cathedral windows, applique sampler, BurgoyneSurround, and a couple I can't remember the block names. I am easily bored and always like to learn new things. I have some designed in EQ7 that I want to make. I saw a braid quilt today that would be perfect for my brother.

First: Log Cabin, because it is hands down the most versatile block ever.
Second: 8-pointed stars.
Third, anything I can "snowball".

I have made more One Block Wonders than any other pattern. Each quilt has been made with different fabric prints and some quilts have more than one fabric. I always love seeing the different designs that emerge when the triangles come together to form hexagons. Two people could use the exact same fabric and still come up with totally different quilts.

I seem to make a lot of 8 pointed stars also. The ones that use 4 flying geese. I'm always making quilts that have those stars in them. And I do not make a very good flying goose, but the stars turn out pretty well. Go figure!

I had not made the same pattern twice - until I met the Florentine Fantasy. It sucked me in with its tractor beam and now I'm HOOKED. I have 7 (yes, SEVEN) in various stages. They are so much fun to make, and very quick to put together. This one is done:

I've never used a pattern more than once, but I love bargello's. I have made two different ones and I know there are more in my future.

Oh, for me it is the log cabin...I cannot even think how many I have done...

Log Cabin for me too. So versatile yet so different and I love piecing the blocks!!

I don't like repeats too much...I have a long list of want to do's so I don't have time to do more than one each...I have been on an applique kick...and I did one pattern (my avatar) again in a different color.

I found a pattern called 'Technocolor Braid'. The templates used are 1/2 of a hexigon. Looks a lot like the French Braid with out the joining squares down the center of the braids. I find I have less waste. Love the scrap quilts. I have 5 shoe boxes cut right now of the pieces; 1 box for each size template 3", 4", 5", 6" and 10". The sewing goes fst and no two are ever the same.

I don't make the same pattern more than once. I think I have made a couple of log cabins though. I have too many on my bucket list, so I can only make each one once. I also have about a dozen UFO's.

I have a hard time making the same pattern over and over...guess I like the variety of different patterns. If I am going to use the same pattern, it has to be in different colors.

I've not done anything in the drunkard's path block. It has so many variations to try. And I guess once you get the pieceing down pat, it's a fairly quick quilt in a bigger block.

I've done Annie's Choice more than once. There are so many color choices that the pattern seems different.

I wanted to make some quick mug rugs and the snowball was the fastest I could think of.

And the Turning Twenty-----------------when the colors change, the quilt changes.

Log Cabin, I keep doing them over and over. You'd think I'd actually get good at it but you'd be wrong ;) That's why I keep trying.

I'm making a single Irish Chain baby quilt (this is only my 6th quilt) and it's been a lot of fun. I will be using this pattern again for a wedding gift next year.

I love a challenge so no don't have a favorite and haven't done a pattern twice too many to try:thumbup:

although i seldom (never) make the same quilt twice---i do have a couple all time favorite blocks that i like to incorporate into my quilts when they fit in---pieced i love making Jacob's Ladder blocks-
paper/foundation pieced I love making the Ohio star block from Carol Doaks (50 fabulous paper pieced stars) book.
those 2 blocks make it into lots of my quilts-
i hate making flying geese...but seem to make alot of them.

Log cabin and all its variations!

I'm stuck with the Double Wedding Ring. Have made about 7 so far. "Everybody wants one......"

At the moment, patterns with small rectangles: Rail Fence, Chinese Coins etc.

that is right for sure! I have saved so many

I love Lucky Stars, have made several baby quilts and 2 Christmas ones, it works up so fast and you can make as tame or as wild as you want.

Log Cabin more times than I can remember

I agree with Tartan, there are so many to try... I have only done Turning Twenty on two occasions because of a fat quarter bundle I won at a fundraiser. To date, I do not have UFO's. I made a promise to myself to finish my projects before going on to the next. I have purchased fabric for my next quilt but need to put the binding on a queen before I start cutting the next one.... let's see how long this goal lasts! LOL

At the moment I am doing lots of charity quilts, and have discovered Missouri Stars "Double slice Layer Cake". It goes so fast, and every one looks different. I was getting teased about "Layer Cake Collection", so am now using them up for Sandy relief. I think I have done about a half dozen of these so far.

My favorite is the double wedding ring....

I've made Sweet Pea by Anka's Treasures twice, and the cover quilt from Amy Ellis' Modern Basics twice. The second one always goes so much more smoothly.
