I have often done 3-5 of the same quilt block/pattern, especially if I am making table runners, placemats or baby quilts; then I move on to something else. I try to make what pleases me, if it's small quilts, bed quilts, quilted bags, etc. and I admit that making Bow Tucks bags in various fabrics can be fun. However, I was asked to make one with a zipper in the top - I finally finished it after many return trips to online tutorials, and am somewhat less than pleased with the results, but maybe my DDIL won't mind too much. She doesn't sew, so she is impressed with whatever I make; I'm just the one with OCD wanting perfection in everything I make; I'm just thrilled though that I was able to do it.
