Artquilter, I think it's perfectly ok to stick to the quilt style that's in your comfort zone. No one says we all have to learn every way there is to put a quilt together. (Well, with the exception of Steve of course. That man will no doubt try every technique known to quilters before he's done! LOL)
I agree with Rebecca wholeheartedly. This should be about individual creativity and fun and relaxation. If you truly WANT to learn how to piece in a different way than what comes naturally to you, then we're all here to help you in any way we can. It will just take patience and practice. But if you're not really into the piecing, I'd go back to what I love if I were you. :)
