I feel there is no cheating in patchwork and quilting, it all started out with making do, so if that is what you want to do to make a quilt it's not cheating.
Sorry your mum tried to have the last word with her under the breath comment as she was leaving, which goes to show you are now the more adult of the two of you, finish your quilt the way you want and be proud of both the quilt and yourself.
