10 Quilty Little Secrets

I saw the list of 10 Quilty Little Secrets over at Molli Sparkles and couldn't help but write my own. The original post is from 13 Spools. Be sure to check both sites out if you want a bit of a chuckle.

Here are my 10 Quilty Little Secrets:

1. I nearly always use Clover Wonder Clips instead of pins. In fact, about the only time I use pins is when I run out of clips.
2. I'm not a fan of machine stitched binding. I much prefer the look of hand stitched. I am quite useless at stitching binding neatly by machine though, so that my have something to do with it.
3. I hate it when people tell me I "HAVE TO" do it this way or "DON'T" do it that way. Shouty capitals make me cranky (so much so that it required a ranty post all on it's own).
4. I'm too scared that the cool kids (i.e. real quilt bloggers) won't like me so I just quietly blog over here, by myself. I'm like a little fish in a completely different pond to all the big fish hahaha.
5. I take no sides in the traditional vs modern quilt debate. My approach is usually more along the lines of  "ooooo pretty".
6. I rarely finish a quilt the way I originally planned. More often than not, the layout is completely different.
7. I spend more time researching techniques online, and in books or magazines, than I do actually sewing.
8. I rarely prewash my fabric. Heck, I rarely even wash my quilts once they're finished.
9. I buy precuts because I'm lazy...and they're usually too cute to pass up.
10. I love my basting spray and would probably marry it if the Government wasn't so opposed to such things.
