    I am a 2 and 3. I can never throw away a scrap that is big enough to do anything with. My quilts are far from perfect, but I love doing them.

    I'm a #3, aspiring to be a #2.
    My signature says it perfectly.

    I can't be a 3 because I have no permanent sewing room! I am a 2 ~ I want to take joy in the journey.

    Im a 2.5!! LOL I strive to be a 2 most of the time but a 3 sometimes happens. As long as I enjoy what Im doing ... this is a hobby for me, something I enjoy to do. If it was my "living" I may have to take it more serious.
    No matter what number you are, I find everyone on this forum is very friendly with great advise.
    Thanks to everyone for all the help you have given me!!

    I strive for a #1 but NOTHING I have made yet is perfect. I do plenty of ripping and re-stitching trying to get points to match. I also end up with flipped seams even though I start out promising myself there will be none of those in THIS quilt - LOL. I go by Liz Porter's statement: re-do once or twice, after that either accept it or throw it out and start over. I think I am a sick woman because I DO inspect everyone's quilts to see if the corners and points match!!! Please don't think I am a "quilt policewoman", I would not say anything outloud but I just can't seem to help myself from inspecting!!!! I know we all have a different standards of what is "good enough" and as I said at the beginning, I always have many mistakes in the quilts I make and I just end up accepting it and am always pleased with the end result. So, I guess I am a "wanna be #1". :-)

    For me it depends on the pattern, the time I want to spend on the project, and the purpose of the quilt.

    I'm mostly a #2. I am pretty tough on myself so I'd have to say that I'm a #2 that leans toward #1. Never a #3, disorder makes me beyond crazy. However, I will say that these numbers apply ONLY to myself, I would NEVER judge another quilter or their work.
