I really don't mind and enjoy just about all of it. Sometimes I need help in picking fabrics. Since I discovered basting the sandwich with Elmer's washable school glue that part has become a piece of cake. I also discovered the thin Crayola Ultra Washable markers for marking the tops. I do test them and they have always washed out. I don't mind sewing on the back of the binding by hand although I don't do that for baby quilts. I like the hum of the sewing machine and still working on FMQ but enjoy that too. Nothing always goes according to plans and there are glitches, but, that is part of the process for me.
