I am more in Onebyone's group. I see a pattern or quilt I like and thinking of my stash, look for a pattern or tutorial (nearly always on line) that would use work with what I have, gather my fabrics and start. I do much better if I have specific instructions. Not so much winging it as my math skills leave something to be desired. As I get older I find the simpler the better, the less pieces to cut - the less fabrics to choose the better for me. Some days I am truly tempted to just grab a couple yards of one fabric, sandwich it, quilt it and be done! Haven't yet but it is in the back of my head.
