I like doing both, but I like wall hangings better. I'm into the (what I call) fake stain glass. I didn't care for cutting all that basis tape. I always put a sleeve on mine, but my husband makes quilt hooks. They are real nice because I can use a T pin in them and not leave a big hole in the wall, and better yet I can hang them myself.

I do wall hanging .the kids like them and get done faster.

I do more wall hangings in the same time or less than bed-size quilts and the satisfaction of seeing the finished work is worth it. Even with my Bernina BSR it's a pain to machine-quilt a full size quilt with a standard size machine. I know a lot of you do it but I haven't reached that level of expertise!

Twin/full sized bed quilts.
|
All sizes of bed quilts. Lately I have been doing alot of baby charity quilts, but my passion is large quilts.
|
wallhanging, lap quilts, table runners, lots of small things. Though I have several bed size as UFO and kits in waiting to do.

love wall hangings, and always put a hanging sleeve, some can be used as table toppers too.... I don't have a very long attention span, so I have to get done with my project quickly... Also , how many large quilts can one person have and I am too Scotch to spend alllllll that money and give it away. Quilter 1234

I have more lap quilts. The size is good for snuggling or hanging on a wall.

I prefer lap and wall size. Bed size is too tiring for these old hands to wrestle through a sewing machine.
