    honestly, they all take turns for me So I either hate them all the same or like them all the same. I think I just get tired of working in one particular way and I need to change... may I have ADD???

    I dislike the sandwiching part of quilting. I really like all the steps up to the sandwiching, and quilting. I don't mind the binding because I know I am almost finished.

    I cannot think of anything I do not like about quilting with the exception of picking threads off of myself at the end of the day.

    Trying to cut straight strips. Getting down on the basement floor to baste.

    My least favorite part is making the quilt sandwich. I think I have everything nice and flat, get it pinned or basted, and, lo and behold, turn it over and there are lumps and bumps.

    I always hated trying to get it together at the end

    I'm just getting back into it so I'm trying to QAYG. I think this is the way to do it.

    Much easier to work with one block at a time and get it how I want it to look with lots of detail and quilting by the piece

    I hate, hate, hate adding the binding. But I hate unfinished quilts more so have to do it.

    I don't like putting on borders! My last quilt didn't have any and it was so nice to be finished when the blocks were together!
