i like every aspect of quilting making from the original design process to seeing the finished product.

this post is a good example of why we (most of us) have more than one project going at a time!

Definitely coordinating the colors/fabrics for the block/quilt.

I enjoy sewing the blocks but seem to stall when it comes to putting them together to complete the top. I really need a design wall. Also, I'm not that confident with my FMQ so right now I'm not enjoying it.

I love the feeling of sewing the very last stitch in the binding. It gives me a feeling of accomplishment and pride in finishing yet another project to give as a gift or to use in my own home.

I like doing the binding because that quilt is done and I can get on to another project.

This describes my feelings!

I really enjoy the piecing of the blocks. Sewing on the label is great too, since that's the last thing I do.

I think you're right. I like all the phases, but at times i am just in the mood to do one or the other. Finishing is by far the best feeling though!
