I never repeat a quilt as I like variety and also like to learn something new with each I make. I like sampler quilts for that reason. I'm not a race either so getting something done in a hurry is not important to me. There are lots of quilts I would like to make but I'm willing to wait to get there. I rarely purchase a pattern. I like looking at a block or quilt, figuring out how to break it down into parts, graph it and then make it. It amazes me when I read on this board, or hear at my quilt guild how many quilts people make. Even though I usually sew every day they either must sew a lot more than I do, be a lot faster, have a lot more money (to buy that much fabric and batting), make simpler quilts, quilt them less and/or send them to a longarmer.
