I have never purchased a kit. I inherited a very large stash and have been working at whittling it down. I look at the cost of the kit and think about all the fabric I have and shake my head no. Recently I was given a kit by a quilter who is cleaning out her stash of many unused kits. It is quite lovely and will be a shill challenge er. It will be my 2021 "Kick off the new year" quilt.
If you are more comfortable with kits, Juliemn1, then revel in them. We all approach quilts and quilting in different ways. My daughter is a kit only person, because at this stage of her life she does not want the stash growing around her. She will inherit my sewing room eventually and have plenty of stash....... but not too soon I hope.
