Default Big, small, or in-between - which type of quilter are you?

Confession, sigh...

I see all these large, glorious quilts full of pattern and color and I fall in love with so many of them, but my reality is they are just too intense for me to actually make. Thinking about this, I've noticed I like to make smaller things, maybe because I don't have a large space or large blocks of time, or maybe because I'll actually at some point finish them. The largest quilts I've made, two, were about 4'x5', and I hand-tied those, but I have made kid size quilts, changing pads, tote bags, cloth dolls, and clothing. I haven't tried applique and I would love to start with something small. I envision seasonal wall hangings, or simple affirmations like "peace", "love", or "it's all good", the size of a placemat. Will I actually make these? Time will tell.

Which size quilt makes you feel more you? What is your favorite thing to sew?
