Same here. There's a quilt I've had in my head for literally years. Thought it would be the most spectacular quilt. Recently I drafted it in EQ and decided I didn't like it at all. There are also lots of designs I've drafted that I know I'll probably never make. Some because I don't like them and some because I don't have time. (See my avatar. Love the design but too many projects ahead of it on my to do list.) But it's fun to play. And I think it's given me a better sense of design and color.
Oh I so agree with the both of you. I have imported a few fabrics, but have found there are so many fabrics already in that have the color and scale I'm looking for that the exact fabric is not an issue.
