Have made several Log Cabins - just to use up scraps. I have done Cedars of Lebanon (Quilters Cache) many times, however, I DO enjoy doing samplers. Love making blocks with my Hunter's Star and Tucker Trimmer rulers!

I hand pieced 2 Double Irish chains, and I have made 3 or 4 Log cabin's. A few years ago I made a Thimbleberries quilt I really liked the pattern, and right now I am making another one for my GD. Usually though I only make a pattern once.

Our guild had a class for a log cabin heart. I'm so color challenged that I only use 2 colors, but I've made 18 quilts using that pattern. I've cut out 2 of that pattern for friends. I wish I could post a picture because it is a real neat pattern.

I love to make Fat Friday when I need a quilt for a guy.

I have made too many puff quilts to count, most of them around the world.Let's see, my first one was around 1980, so probably between 50 and 100!! lol

I never repeat a quilt as I like variety and also like to learn something new with each I make. I like sampler quilts for that reason. I'm not a race either so getting something done in a hurry is not important to me. There are lots of quilts I would like to make but I'm willing to wait to get there. I rarely purchase a pattern. I like looking at a block or quilt, figuring out how to break it down into parts, graph it and then make it. It amazes me when I read on this board, or hear at my quilt guild how many quilts people make. Even though I usually sew every day they either must sew a lot more than I do, be a lot faster, have a lot more money (to buy that much fabric and batting), make simpler quilts, quilt them less and/or send them to a longarmer.

Just twice, but I've done 4 patterns twice. That may be the max for me right now. I have so many that I want to make, I'm trying to expand my skills, and repeating just doesn't do it.
