There are so many wonderful patterns available today, how do we decide which ones to make? Theres only so many hours in a day. We have a stash so whenever we need to make a crib quilt we can get one made up in time for the birth. There are friends that become ill that need a comfort quilt. Once again our stash comes in handy. But how many patterns do you have set a side to make for yourself?
I have 3 patterns on my desk, these are my 'to do' quilts.
The first one I have most of the fabrics, so I can get a start on it whenever time allows.
The second one I have half of the fabrics, no need to start collecting fabrics until I'm almost finished with the first one.
The third pattern is a paper pieced quilt, which will need a lot of different fabrics which will take several years to collect. Hopefully by the time I get to this pattern I will have enough fabrics to make this quilt.
What if I come across another quilt pattern? Add it to the bottom of my 'to do' list? Bump a previous pattern?
Decisions, Decisions, Decisions. LOL
I'm curious what about other quilters and their 'to do' list.
