Do you tend to do the same pattern for most of your quilts or a different pattern for each?
|
I like trying new designs, but for some reason, I keep going back to the same old pattern. . . . . . is that a bad thing?? :roll:
|
I do what i'm comfortable with and the purpose the quilt is used for. I have a simple three piece design that I use over and over. It changes look with the fabrics I am using.
It is quick and easy and varied from the plain square block. However, if you want to improve your skill you might consider doing different blocks that require different techniques. |
Most of the time I have not repeated quilts/pattern in my 8 yrs of piecing/quilting. I think the only ones that I have repeated is for a few table runners (fast and easy).
|
I have only once repeated a pattern and it was the twisted log cabin design I liked it so much. I love to do new things so I dont get burnt out piecing.
|
So many patterns, so little time. I can't see ever repeating a pattern unless it's by special request.
|
I usually go with a new design, my list of to-do's is huge! I think the only ones I've repeated are bargellos & log cabins (but I've varied with spirals, wonky & traditional).
To be honest, I usually don't have a plan in mind when I start a quilt & just design on the fly. |
I typically do not repeat. But there are a few patterns that lend them selves well to the type of scraps I want to use up , for instance log cabin goes well for long sinky strips in various lenghts.

I like trying out new patterns, but there are some I repeat if I need a quick little quilt made up :D:D:D
|
Once I've done something I have a hard time doing it again but I have. I did matching quilt patterns (different fabrics) for twin ggds. Just posted the pix. But usually I don't do them twice. Why keep climbing Pike's Peak? Move on to other mountain ranges. There's just so many out there that I want to do I don't like to take the time to repeat things.
