No pennalties or judgements will be made to the said offender if their heart is deemed true. So see if the Rule book says it then I think you should be ok. The quilt police won't be called in. Sure you may get a few funny looks from the under quailifed judges of your life but they can't possibly know what your heart says to do. Hope this helps!
I cannot believe the response I have received for this! Thank you all so much! This one seems to be "official" but of course, all the responses were convincing. I have a packed week but I am going to start by putting all my Christmas projects out of sight. I did finish all but the big one but once my slate is cleared, I can start cutting. Happy holidays to all !!
