I usually start with a pattern, but rarely follow it straight through. I love to choose my own colors and rearrange blocks or add elements until I'm satisfied. I also go out and search for tutorials to learn new techniques so I can do things that are new to me. Even kits don't end up looking like the photo. Absolutely love the simplicity of Brigitte's Zen Chic fabric lines and the book!

I've now finished two other quilts and in the process of my third. I'm attempting to create my own pattern but at times I find myself heading "back to the drawing board". I love seeing what everyone else is doing.
