This is part of my problem, I think. Lots of quilts interest me, but is it real interest, or is it “ooh pretty” interest that never leads to actually making a quilt?
I do think that maybe I need to really think about the fact that there are tons of great patterns out there - if I get rid of a book, there are always going to be other patterns that I like out there available in the future, just like I don’t have to buy every print that catches my eye in the fabric store. There will always be a new pretty print when I’m ready to buy.
