Do you dislike traditional quilting
#1
It took me a long time to figure out why I would fight finishing a quilt. I finally realized I don't really like to do traditional quilting and after the first few blocks I'm bored with it. But I do love to quilt so the answer for me has been more modern contemporary quilts that allow my imagination ro wander all over my brain. It isn't the time it takes to piece the quilt because I love doing hand quilting and that takes forever. I think it's just the process of sewing all the pieces together. My point is, we don't all have to like the same things to enjoy quilting. Just enjoy what you are doing and have fun.

I think that is one of the best things about quilting! And if you dont' like the style you are making..make your own! I'm a traditional quilter who loves brights and quirky color combinations. I think I have a break out art quilt in my bucket list tho!
