    Finding the fabric is my best part. If I have a bad day at work, I go to the fabric store just to look and touch the fabric. It makes me feel better. Only problem is I never get out of there without buying some.

    I love buying fabric - just keep on buying. Where ever we go on vacation I go to at least one store and buy fabric. On our way to Mississippi tomorrow - north west - anyone know of a store?

    I definitely like picking the design and the fabric. But I like sharing it with everyone on here. Everyone always gives back such positive feedback. :D

    The best part for me is making the top--once the blocks are done, it is work to get it sandwiched, quilted, etc. Sewing is my number one relaxing fun thing to do.

    Well, besides seeing the finished product (which I think for every quilter is a favorite, hands down) I really like the design process. Granted, when I really get focused on a project I can get in over my head a bit and end up driving myself nuts trying to come up with something I'm satisfied with and then figuring out how I'm gonna do it (ah, the life of an artist).

    The best part for me is seeing the fabric and the design pops into my head.... then I just have to buy the fabric, can't leave a design trapped can I? lol :)
