What is your least favorite part of quilting?
#161
Love to cut and piece and bind etc....love all except the actual quilting. I've never admitted this publicly (smile!). My FAVORITE part is planning that perfect quilt pattern for some gorgeous fabric, which has me all inspired. Now , what I really need is a troupe to finish what I've started, but not finished!

My least favorite part is sandwiching the 3 layers and pinning them together. I only have one leg so have to do it crawling around on the floor. I find it very hard to get everything taut and wrinkle free. Especially on very big quilts.

"Clearly Perfect Angles" I bought it at a quilt shop and it have
saved me hundreds of hours. I love it.

I agree with sewTinker. Cutting the fabric is the worst for me. No matter how careful I am making sure everything is lined up straight, the blocks come out just a tiny bit uneven. Maybe, I just need to stop being a perfectionist. My husband tells me that, yet he is one, too.
