OK, I agree with the lady who said never say never - I used to really dislike contemporary and only like trad - now I'd say I've gone the other way. The only thing I could say I'll NEVER do is a kit where the pattern and fabrics are all picked out for me. I don't see the point when I know EXACTLY how something will turn out from the outset. The bargello I made recently was a real challenge although I'd chosen my own fabrics. That's one of the reasons why I LOVE techniques like the OBW - the process is the point as much as having the finished piece, you never know quite how it will turn out.
