let's all remember that the overwhelming majority of quilters who prefer one method (or collection of methods) to others are just exercising that preference. they might also be encouraging others to at least try those methods.
it's a rare quilter who will tell others that hers is the only correct way. she most likely approaches life in general that way, too.
as we continue this conversation, please remember that 99.99999% of the people you meet who say "I always" or "I never" are just making you aware of their own preference. they are most likely not criticizing you if you happen to do it otherwise.
it's not a good idea to paint with too wide a brush. the mess it makes is very difficult to clean up. ;-)
