What is your favorite part of making a quilt?

the binding? That is the only part of making a quilt I don't like - I love picking out the pattern and fabric, I love cutting and sewing, I even enjoy ironing. I love quilting (also have a long arm) but I just don't care for binding.
What may seem strange, but I think my favorite part is cutting the fabric.

I like all parts. I'm weakest at picking out a quilting design but once I do I enjoy it. I don't mind the bindings - I usually hand sew to the back. I don't have any hand or wrist issues and I find it relaxing. Since I quilt mostly for my own pleasure I'm never in a rush to finish anything.

I also love to bind, I also enjoy piecing when the house is clean I feel stressed picking out fabrics and it takes me a long time to audition colors...
What I don't enjoy is finishing a quilt and placing it in a pillowcase in the closet...I wish I could display them..Maybe I will!
