Thank goodness I'm not the only one!!! :D

While the work is beautiful, I've always wondered WHY the quilter feels the need to fill every single inch of the piecers work with another level of art.

If the quilt is made to highlight the quilting, well and good, but most quilts are not intended to be museum pieces in my humble opinion.

I always felt that my feeling was based on envy as I wish I could create the quilting designs they accomplish, but I think in a lot of cases, I prefer simplicity in quilting to highlight the pattern used with the beautiful fabric.

Just me I'm afraid. Sorry LA's....no personal slam intended.
All of you do beautiful work and I'm sure that's what the customer wants.
