I hope no one gets offended by my answer as I certainly do not mean to offend. This is just my opinion and since you asked.... I, personally, place little value on a computer generated, computer guided quilting design. What skill is needed for that? You need to know how to load the quilt on the rack, line up the needle so it starts quilting in the right spot then flip a switch. Following a panto or stencil takes more skill. While the finished product does look lovely I feel there is no talent or atristry involved and there is no singular uniqueness to the quilt. I suppose there is some talent involved in designing the quilted pattern but once it is designed no skill other then those I mentioned above is needed. I prefer free hand or hand guided.
