Mostly I'm a "one and done-er." I've made some E. Burns patterns patterns more than once. Others...meh. I do like MSQC's patterns with You Tube, too. I've made my one (pieced, not appliqued) wedding ring quilt, so that's off the list forever! YAY!

I have made a few French Braid quilts, people request them and I enjoy making them. They are all very different though. Same with Bargello quilts- I love making them, same technique but very different designs. Those are the only ones I make over and over- but then I’ve never made one just like a previous one. So I guess I return to technique/ blocks but always make different designs

I have made a lot of Dresdens and my go to is Irish Chain. Other than that all are different!

Once only. There’s too many designs I want to make.

I will make a quilt twice, but mainly one and done.

With the exception of crib quilts, I am one and done. I agree with Teen, I have such a growing list of quilts I want to make that when I’m finished with one, I’m already moving on to the next challenge. I still have yet to make some of the traditional quilts like Log Cabin or Double Wedding Ring so maybe those kinds of patterns will become repeats down the road.

Recently I seem to be in a Pineapp!e Block mode.

Most often I do only one quilt of each pattern, however there are some I have done multiple times. The Mariner's Compass I did three times, the jewel box quilt from Eleanor Burns I made three times. All my other quilts have been one of a kind. If I really like a pattern I've made for someone else though, I might make one for us. I try to learn from each quilt I make. They all have their own techniques & I like variety.

I've made patterns once only, with two exceptions. One was the 4-patch posy; I wasn't pleased with my fabric choice on the first one so tried again (wasn't that happy with the second, either). The second was a Bunny Hill pattern called Park Lane.

I love logcabins of every sort and there are so many variations too. Otherwise I like to try my hand at different patterns so I can learn different techniques. I try not to make the same pattern unless someone asks me too. I did make 2 of Bonnie Hunter's Pineapple Blossom pattern but one was totally scrappy (my 1st scrappy ever) and the other was a controlled scrappy so they looked different. Have another one of them to make in a kit I bought only because it was the colors the recipent liked..........otherwise I would have never purchased it though it was a great price.
