Default Annoying The Quilt Police

I live to annoy and confuse the quilt police so do any of you here do the same?

If so what have you done to annoy them?

I don't give the quilt police any thought.

Life's too short to worry about it. If somebody's annoyed it's their problem not mine.

Why would anyone spend their time dreaming up ways to intentionally annoy someone?

I think anyone who has to "nick-pick" anything that is sewn from the heart, with love, deserves to be annoyed!!!! Do you really change your needle every 6 hrs? Do you have that perfect 1/4 in. seam? Sometimes "snobs" need to be put in their place.

I start out with a pattern and it changes into a "freestyle" because I can't (apparently) cut a straight line or sew a straight 1/4" seam so I always end up with "A Sunnye"!!!!!

I've never had the chance to annoy the QP (most people, I know, are awed by anything handmade) but have had a bit of fun, with other pompous donkeys.

My answer to both questions is NO. I’ve got better things to do with my time, and I think karma works.

The quilt police would probably have a fatal case of laughter and have to be taken straight to the graveyard if they came into my house. And if they didn't die laughing at me, I would probably roll on the floor laughing at them. I think they are ridiculous anyway. I have much the same attitude toward rules in quilt making as Wassily Kandinsky had about painting.
