I kinda feel that way with blocks that are the same. I don't think I could make a quilt with all the blocks the same pattern & same fabric. I'd go nuts. I like to see other people's but I just couldn't do it.

I don't consider myself stuck on a pattern yet, but I have made two of some patterns then move on. I feel I learn so much with each new challenge and always looking forward to trying something new.

I once told someone I was a 'one trick pony' when I was stuck on a pattern. She told me, 'If it's a good trick, that is OK' So enjoy all the Take Five you want, it looks like a pretty good 'trick' to me.

D9P for me, trying to gear each to each grandchild.......still have two that need completed.
Will have to check out your pattern, have made a couple of the Take Twenty, ( I believe that's the name )
And yours are awesome......

There are patterns that I do several times, just not one after another. Most of my quilts are given away, so it really doesn't matter that I am doing the same quilt in different colors. Rigth now, I'm making quilts just to use up the stash that I have, so I use any pattern that will work with the color combos that I have. Hence, my like for scrappy quilts.
By the way, your quilts are lovely.

I am stuck on obw.So, far, I have cut out 5 and figured out that one didn't work well, so I dumped the scraps in the scrap bin. I just finished the first one I cut out. It is a baby quilt made with upholstery fabric. I worked out all the bungs in that one. I will try to load a pictire at some point, but I am hopelessly anti-tech. Can't even get channel 5 on my TV. Or erase songs I am sick of on the MP3 player. Thank goodness I have a tekkie son.

Berni, I don't know if there is a tutorial here on Take Five or not. It is a pattern you have to buy, so I would doubt it.

Dina

Thank you Dina...Guess I'll do that..berni

I don't think I have ever made the same pattern twice but my DILs have both made a Turning Twelve (an abbreviated Turning Twenty) a couple of times.

I have the Take Five but just haven't done it yet.

I think I could do the Jelly Roll 1600 multiple times but I don't let myself buy jelly rolls.

I really like your second quilt.

It is a very nice pattern and your quilts are very pretty, so I don't see a problem. If you enjoy making that pattern---Just go with it! Each quilt is different. Enjoy your quilting.

I do have a favorite pattern(?) string quilts. When I need to relax I make string quilt blocks and then every once in a while I put one together. I usually do an applique border on them. However, I really don't like to make the same thing twice, so I have a many patterns that I will probably never use again.

Dina, these are great, where can I find this pattern. Thanks, Threads.

Which book of take 5?

I've done several personal sized turning 20's. But the color combos are sooooooooooo different, that they seems to be completely different, too.

The take 5 looks so different according to what fabrics you use that being the same pattern isn't really evident.

I have done the Fab Five by Abbey Lane Quilts a lot. I have changed the size easily to make baby quilts and larger lap quilts. Love that pattern. I embroidery designs in the applique section instead of applique. I usually use 5 different fabrics plus the sashing and the applique section. Fun fast pattern and lots of variety.

I have too many quilts I'd like to make, so no ! lol

Not stuck on one pattern just yet... however, now I want to try yours!
Love the "look"!!

For us log cabins are always a good fall back. Have made more of them than any other pattern.
