My favorite part is handquilting. I also like to purchase and handle fabric but not necessarily to cut it up and sew it back together. I barely tolerate that part just to get to the quilting. The assembly of the top and the sandwhiching process are like other chores I have learned to do in my life like housework. I do them because they are necessary but I kind of tune out while I am doing them. I have learned after a lifetime of doing things that are necessary to just do it and get on to the good parts.
