    Default Does anyone else do this?

    I absolutely love looking at the pictures the members post of their quilts. But lately I've noticed that when I see them and I'm commenting to myself about how much I like the quilt I realize that - I have that pattern! Now I'm asking myself why I haven't made it yet and where did I put the pattern. There goes another thing to put on my To Do List.

    I do the same thing, so you aren't alone. So much inspiration here so if I don't have the pattern already I'm more likely to find one for myself. Although I do tend to look for free patterns for the same or similar before buying one. One thing for sure, my to do list gets a little longer every day!

    I have over 300 patterns saved on Craftsy alone. Some free, some purchased. That is a quilting sin.

    Yes I do the same thing. Don't feel alone. I think it's 'normal' - for us quilters.

    I have not bought many patterns, but I do see inspiration everywhere I look. I would have to be four people with lifespans of 130 years to do everything I want.

    I don't have a lot of patterns but I see so many things I want to make. And don't even get me started on vintage machines!!!

    Yes!!! I have admired the Labyrinth for a long time. Today I was looking for some "how to" instructions, and came across several patterns I forgot I had. Yup....Labyrinth was right on top!!

    I don't have a lot of patterns yet either...but the one quilt that gets posted often that I seem to admire is Yellow Brick Road and funny, I thought I bought that pattern a long time ago but I've never seen it in my sewing room. LOL
