Seriously!? That lecturer was a kill joy!
anyone can make a block and quilt it in a short time and that would be a doll quilt! Not a lot of patience there.
Geometry?? I never took it in school and I make beautiful quilts.
Precision.....Will that is something to work for but if it doesn't happen it doesn't make the quilt not warm and cuddly! Whats more important cuddly, warm and colorful or all the seams matching perfect.
Our ancestors that starting making quilts didn't go to school, didn't have rotary cutters for precision cutting and worked by firelight and their quilts are what made all of us WANT to quilt because they are full of memories and love not perfection!
I would rather be wrapped up in love than perfection anyday! :-)
