Goodness, that is a hard question! Well, let's see, I love everything to do with the top: fabric choice, piecing, seeing it all come together and then seeing a completed top. I fall into a rut when I get to the basting. I love the quilting part, only if I'm not too hard on myself and unpick everything! After that, I'm so impatient to finish that I just push myself to do the binding.
|
I like the final stage of hand sewing the binding to the back. That's the time that I can truly think about the special person that the quilt was made for, pray for them & think back on the whole process of making the quilt. What I love best is when I struggle to figure out just the right quilt for the right person & all of a sudden a light bulb goes off & the plan comes together. Many, many times I totally amaze myself that I came up with what I did. :)

My favorite part is the designing process and when I start pulling together the fabrics I want to use.
|
My favorite part is Done! However, I do like most steps. My hardest hurdle is choosing the fabrics out of my stash. I just like to spend time in my sewing room as it is a comfortable space and free of distraction unless I choose to be distracted.
|
I suppose it is the thrill of the hunt for just the right fabric to make a quilt I have in mind. I enjoy all of the process like most of the gals said. Most especially the finished part too. It is like Yippee! It is done.
|
I enjoy piecing the blocks the most. Second would be the quilting (on the longarm).
|
I love the planning stage the most. Drawing out the design on grid paper, deciding on colors, shopping stash, and getting everything laid out for the cutting. Then the real work begins. I used to hate making the sandwich but recently realized that I was just afraid of messing up the quilting. Now that I am gaining confidence in quilting, I don't mind the basting either. My DF taught me how to make flanged binding and even binding is a breeze now.
|
I love all of it: fabric shopping is awesome, I love figuring out what my plan is, putting it together, quilting it, going back to pick out binding fabric, binding...I love quilting! :)
|
I really enjoy all aspects of making quilts usually, but I think my favorite part right now is doing the free motion quilting on the quilts. I'm still learning a great deal about it, but I feel like I'm getting better. :-)
|
For me it's either the very end, having a finished project, or the very beginning, shopping for fabrics.
