That's certainly an element - I've spent this morning piecing blocks for a baby quilt, and I love seeing it gradually come together. I hate the layering stage because I don't have a large space, so it's always difficult. Quilting has finally become enjoyable now that I have a machine that will do it and am getting a bit more confident thanks to Leah Day's tuition. I hate putting binding on - so far I HAVE always got the ends to join up, but there's always that worry. I don't mind hand sewing the binding. Really hate all the tidying up - burying ends etc. And, yes, am too prone to being distracted by another project before I've finished!
