When I started quilting, anything and everything entranced me. I wished I could get a sense of myself as a quilter. Eventually, this did happen. While I still enjoy looking at all kinds of quilts, I'm no longer drawn to working with modern fabrics or patterns. It's the complex, busy reproduction fabrics that fascinate me, and that I want to make quilts with. The smaller the pieces, the more pleasure I find in working with them (within reason -- I'm perfectly happy with a 6" block, and don't yet feel drawn to make 4" blocks). Since I have trouble lifting a heavy quilt, I gravitate to lap and nap size, which work fine on a bed for supplemental warmth.
