There are patterns that I don't care for - although those are far and few between - but nothing that elicits the strong sensation that a bargello does. It's very peculiar.
Thank goodness we all have different likes and dislikes. Wouldn't it be a dull world if we all liked the same things???

This is just too funny a topic, because it seems, that the bargello and log cabin are really taking the hits, and I just finished a THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX log cabin pattern, my first log cabin, and went straight to work on a bargello. I know that I will do the log cabin again, but the bargello, it is really giving me a headache. Maybe when I get done, I will like it, but right now, not so much. But, as far as actual patterns, I love all patterns, but know that there are some I would never do, so I just admire someone else's talents and find my own nook.

I love scrap quilts, crumb quilts and log cabins...lol! I even like to see the storybook version of a scrap quilt in a children's story book....you know the quilt that always seems to cover whichever child is in bed, in the story :lol: I know, weird, huh?
I see lots of quilts that I don't think that I would like to attempt but I still like to look at pictures of them.
I don't know if this is related to the people that are creeped out by certain patterns or sharp points but many years ago when I was going through a rough time in my life and suffered from anxiety/panic attacks, I couldn't look at old buildings. Not sure what it was but I would start to feel anxiety just by looking at the architecture of old buildings. I don't feel that way now but still remember how it made me feel, then.

I have read every post on all 14 pages! Isn't it wonderful that we can agree to disagree. I"m not fond of OBW's, too busy for me. I promise I will never make one, but that doesn't stop me from looking and admiring every picture on the board. Might miss something if I don't look!

I like to see everyone's individual take on a pattern and the color that I have seen some of you come you with make me rethink the patterns I did not like when I started. You are one bunch of talened people.

I don't like crumb or crazy quilts. I do love scrappy quilts as well as the totally controlled color quilts. I HATE Sunbonnet Sue, but Naughty Sue is fun. Not thrilled by Turning Twenty...they are a bit boring.

I like the simplicity of just two or even just a few fabrics in a quilt design. But I have done quilts with more than just a few fabrics. The bargello fabric assortment is just way too much for me. Although I've seen a few bargellos on this site that I did think were beautiful. Go figure!
