If i was ever given one I would use and cherish it. But i don't want to make one myself. It just doesn't look fun to make to me.

    How about you...anything you have no desire to make?

    I am trying learn paper piceing and so far it has been driving me nuts! All I do is make a mess of it and spend time ripping it apart. Guess it is time to get a good book on it if there is one.

    OBW, I have desire to make one of those. But I love scrap quilting and applique .....so you can send your scraps over to me, I'd put them to good use.

    I am not fond of making anything with triangles because I can't line them up, but I am now interested in the card trick block and guess what....they are made up of triangles! I am either going to conquer this quest or jump ship. I posted today asking how to down-size this block from 9" to 6" or so and waiting a response. I have lots of scraps and wanted to make a scrpay card trick quilt.

    I want them all! I don't piece many tops myself, but I simply love quilting tops for others. I love all the colors and patterns. Wish I could keep all of them!

    Anything with novelty fabrics. I own one novelty fat quarter that was purchased in a fat quarter pack so I had no choice. I've entered that in the Ugly fabric contest so hopefully I don't win and someone else gets stuck with it :)

    Oh and rag quilts.

    don't like bargellos, rag quilts, civil war repos. tried paper piecing for the first time for the holiday gifts and loved the precision. and the paper was easy to tear off. so will definitely be doing more of this technique.

    I have no desire to do a one block wonder or a stack n wack. I enjoy seeing how many different blocks can come out of one fabric but not for me.
