One thing I can tell you is that when someone places their hard work and creativity in my hands to quilt, I feel a great sense of responsibility to do my very best as do other LA quilters. We do our best for that person and that quilt. Everyone's likes and dislikes are different but if that quilt makes them happy, I'm happy even if it's not what I would have preferred to put on it. We may get a little carried away in our effort to please but tell me one quilter who doesn't get carried away-it's an addiction , you know. LOL
