OMG do i.
writers are known to say "i hate writing but i love having written" well thats how i feel about quilting most of the time.
as an artist you constantly try to learn new techniques or improve upon a skill and this requires hard work, lots of time, and much frustration.
i repeatedly go thru a love/hate/love relationship with my quilts. when i'm designing them i fall in love with the concept and the fabric, then when i'm pushing my artistic limits i fall in hate with the quilt.
by the time i'm done with the quilt i've been pushed to my limit and i just want to burn the quilt in the firepit outside.
then as a few weeks pass i fall madly in love with the quilt again. all the little flaws that drove me nuts aren't visible any longer and i'm happy again.
so yes - i hate quilting but i love having quilted!
