Your avatar quilt looks so pretty! I wish you'd post it separately so I could see it better!
My DH would have no use for a quilt, unless he was down with a fever. He sleeps with just a sheet on most nights!
And he has no appreciation for "planned" quilts. He says when he was growing up, his grandmother would reach into the scrap bag and sew the pieces together in whatever order they came out of the bag. I have trouble believing that. None of the quilts survived, to my knowledge. He said lots of things like that just got thrown away when they were doing a major cleanup.
