My Fav is quilting. I just love cutting up fabric into little pieces just to sew it back together again 😉
-
Congratulations on such a tremendous milestone!
Garments are definitely my favorite to sew, although I find most of my time is spent on clothing accessories, aka “crafts”, such as purses, scarves and such. I’d like to do more creative stitching with mixed media for solely artistic pieces at some point. -
My first choice of a sewing project is a garment, however, I enjoy making quilts too!
-
I love sewing garments. Especially for my grand children! I just recently started quilting, so this book would really come in handy!

Quilting from start to finish. But also making things for my grand babies. Also now making bias tape to be used on hospital gowns for very ill children. Makes my heart warm.

Quilting is my first choice, then garments.

My favorite part of sewing is making totes, purses, clutches, and just starting to add garments. I just started sewing in Oct 2012 and got my first Bernina 380 few weeks later.

I’m usually making cloth diaper covers, nursing covers or wet bags 🙂 On a baby kick right now.

My favorite part of sewing is collecting the fabric! I know, I know, I’m supposed to actually sew it into something at some point, but the colors and textures draw me in … and before I know it, I have more fabric in my stash!
I do love quilting, apparel sewing and fabric crafting. -
Love to quilt and sew handbags the most.

I love to quilt, and it was Simply quilts that got me interested. I learned to sew as a child so a sewing machine was not unfamiliar to me .. I love to quilt, sew, craft and embroider all on a sewing machine 🙂
-
I love to do embroidery applique and just finished an apron that was done in the hoop. Loved it!
-
My favorite type is sewing small cosmetic bags and the like. I I like how quickly they can be made. My very close second -almost a tie- is quilting. I enjoy the whole process, and the satisfaction when such a large project is complete.

Quilting of course. 🙂

I love to sew, embroider, and serge. It is so easy to love sewing when you have a Bernina machine. All my errors have been of the human type and not the machines since I bought my Bernina.
-
quilting
-
This is going to sound silly, but my favourite thing to make are dice bags. I make these lined bags which I sell as “dice bags,” but they’re just lined pouches with drawstrings. I’m part of a big RPG community.
-

-
Absolutely love free motion quilting and Bernina Designs for Embroidery.

I love quilting! Patchwork is my favorite. I have started sewing clothes for grand babies.

I just recently lost my precious mom. As we went thru her little apartment, I was shocked find all the little things that I had sewn for her over the last 30 years. Some, rather embarrassing to me now as my skills have grown, but they were precious to her. Her favorite piece was a wall hanging I embroidered a few years ago that had her favorite Hymn and complimentary embroidery designs. She treasured it and hung in the entry way of her home. Another was her little purple jacket that I embroidered with Red Hat Ladies designs. I can’t bring myself to wash it as it still smells like her. Maybe someday. For now I hold it close and think of all the fond memories of this amazing woman who taught me the love of sewing.
-
My favorite is embroidery on Anything! Quilts, clothing, household goods….you name it!
-
I love to make quilts and do home decorating projects.
-
Quilting feels the most creative and appreciated, however…. I love creating garments to be worn & amazed at!

Quilting, by far. 🙂
-
I do machine embroidery on items I make. I do tote bags, purses, baby items (bibs, burp cloths, and baby quilts). Love your tutorials, I always find something new to try.
-
I love making costumes and quilting is something that I’d like to pick up!

I sew Rodeo Queen clothes from dresses to shirts. I do some leather but most of the dresses I make are from gaberdine with embroidered or appliqued designs and lots of sparkle and rhinestones……It really is fun to see when the pieces are done and they are in the arena or on the fashion floor….
-
What fun! I’d love to see them. Would you send some photos to [email protected]? Jo

-
I like it all, sewing, quilting, home decor. Favorite is garment construction of fabric that has been embellished and or quilted.
-
Love making quilts, but have been making bags, purses, totes, table runners and table toppers as well. I made a retro apron this year for mom, and oh boy, that was fun. (not) Quilting is a lot easier than making clothes, and besides, pattern makers don’t make nice clothes in my size. So a quilt is loved and used no matter what size. It truly is one size fits all.
-
It’s easier for me to list my least favorite (alterations), because there are a number of things that I do obsessively, but kind of in rotation. Those would be costumes, heirloom, quilting and doll clothes. Love them all.
-
I love providing custom embroidery on merchandise because it makes a unique product for someone that they can’t find anywhere else!
-
Quilting – it’s my therapy!
-
I love quilting and home decorating projects on my Aurora 450
-
I love to quilt all fashions of quilts from miniatures to queen size.
-
I love to sew gifts for others. Sometimes this is the oomph I need to start a project and complete it by a particular time.
-
I have been sewing on a Bernina since I was 4 years old. I have 6 machines now and they specialize in different techniques. So it is hard for me to narrow it down to just one type of sewing. At this point and time in my life I am loving quilting. 10-15 years ago it was all about embroidery. Then throughout the year it changes depending on who I am sewing for. I am sure when the grandkids come along it will be clothes and toys as it was when my children were little. In a nutshell, I love all types even the ones that are taking me years to finish, the reason why is because I have tools – my Berninas. I have sewn on other ladies machines at church and just feel so blessed that my momma raised me on the best! I truly believe that I wouldn’t have developed as many sewing talents & projects if I was on any other machines.
-
I started sewing garments way back when, then gravitated to crafts. Most recently it’s quilting with a garment here and there. There was a time when I even sewed my outdoor gear when Frostline kits was around. (Down sleeping bags and vest, bicycle packs, winter clothing, etc.)
-
My next project is a christening outfit for my new grandson and a dress for his sister! Then, it’s on to quilts for my daughters! I love my Bernina! It’s such a joy to use!
-
I like quilting best. Mostly the piecing. I haven’t gotten around to becoming proficient with my BSR yet but I will be practicing soon.
-
definitely quilting , either piecing or applique.
-
My favorite type of sewing is anything I design myself- the satisfaction of seeing a garment or a bag I’ve planned out without a pattern come together is beyond words. Even if it’s something simple, like the potholders I designed last night for my new apartment, sized specifically to fit my hands, I feel so accomplished when it’s finished and I can look at it and know that I have something that no one else in the world has.
The one type of sewing I haven’t tried yet is actually quilting, though I’ve been meaning to, since goodness knows I have enough colorful scraps for it… so perhaps this book is just what the doctor ordered. 🙂
-
I love garment sewing, especially costumes.
-
Quilting is my favorite craft and it’s also therapy!
-
My current favorite is sewing fleece beanies and blankets.
-
Machine embroidery, home dec and quilting on my fabulous Berninas!
-
I have traditionally done more garments than anything else, but since I got my new Bernina 580E, a whole world of projects have found their way to my list…I have done my first quilt! Embroidery all kinds of fun things and have even worked on stuffed animals. I have also made my machine covers to coordinate in my sewing room. So I can’t really say that I am any one of those things… I’m looking for new projects every day!
-
I love to QUILT!!!!!!!
-
I have just gotten into quilting. Right now I am using my antique Singer sewing machine. While it is so much fun using the little workhorse and makes me think fondly of my Grandmother, Mother and all the love they put into the many garments and household items they sewed on it, I dream of one day soon owning and sewing on a Bernina! Thank you for the opportunity — I really hope I win!!
-

Embroidery first with quilting a close second

My aunt taught me to sew when I was 8 or 9 years old on an old vintage sewing machine. I made a pair of cotton shorts that I wore all summer. I haven’t stopped sewing since. My favorite sewing projects have been sewing for my two children (grown up now), and decorating my home. I would very much love to begin quilting, as it is would open up many creative projects.
