I have followed this thread since it started because it's interesting and it has given me insight into my own quilting habits. It does show how each of us are unique in our habits. I have come to realize that my style tends to be multiple quilts at one time, the pictures I posted in December of the Christmas fabric lap quilts, I had purchased all the fabric at various times over the year, and I kept making quilts until all the fabric was used up. I am currently working in the same manner, will have 7 quilts when I'm done, including two that are scrap quilts from the left overs. To conclude I find a fabric or theme, buy coordinates over time, then when a pattern or technique inspires me I make quilts and use it all up. I work on individual projects in between the batch projects, such as using up scraps, bags, wall hangings, table runners, paper piecing, ect......
