    Default Favorite quilt?

    I am working my way towards making my first "real quilt". I am hoping you have something stuck away in your files that will inspire me. I have nothing but time, so difficult is not a problem. What is your favorite?

    Hands down Storm at Sea. Bargello would be my next favorite.

    I love the wavy log cabin. I made two of them for my two daughters for Christmas.

    There are so many that I love and so many that I would love to try. I prefer the traditional blocks and will never have enough time in this lifetime to do all that I want to try. One that I have enjoyed making as a beginner and "advanced beginner" is the disappearing nine patch. There are so many possibilities. One that I did was done with the corner blocks "fussy cut." Loved that one. Also love the fence rail and Warm Wishes. Good luck and happy quilting.

    I've made a few trip around the world quilts and they are so pretty when done. Also like the ohio star.
