If it is quilted, it is a quilted wall hanging.
This idea of finding a pattern you really like and then find it is a wall hanging and only gives size and directions for a wall hanging is completely absurd to me.
Yes, some are quite beautiful, but they are still not quilts, they are wall hangings.
There, I finally got that out of my system. I hope somebody agrees with me.
So totally agree!! Many times I've found patterns I'd love to make only to find out they are wall hangings with no "how to" make them into bed quilts. Won't buy them or give them a second look any longer! Thank you for finally putting my sentiments into words! LOL! (Since I thought I was the ONLY one who felt this way, I was reluctant to speak out!)
