I used to like it all. But for health reasons, quilting (hand or machine) is out for me, so now I just love the rest of it... except for putting the borders on. I hate to put borders on (thus most of my quilts get maybe a narrow inner & somewhat wider outer solid border). But I think my very favorite part is basting & then hand sewing the binding to the back. Yes, I know I need professional help... LOL!
