I am not crazy about cutting and measuring. Hand sewing the binding is also not my forte. I don't mind making the quilt sammy - I find it oddly enjoyable although sometimes it hurts my fingers. What I love most about quilting is free motion quilting! Yippee!

I agree, I don't mind doing binding, I like challenges, but sandwiching drives me nuts.

I just found a new way to sandwich and baste, so it's not as dreaded as it once was. I have trouble deciding how to machine quilt my quilts. Once I decide, I'm ok, but the decision-making process is excruciating.

Mine is the sandwiching! I never look forward to that part.

Today-borders, but generally binding is my least favorite part.

I'm your basic topper...so I'll only address the process to top completion. My enthusiasm wains when I can see what the top will really look like...that's when I want to start another! I've got quite a few completed tops...but I've got quite a few tops that just need a bit more work because it just wasn't going to be as much fun to finish as it would be to start another! For me, it's about the fun...not about the finish.
