Default Picture Quilts

Hi Everyone!

I'm new to the forum. I have only ever made one quilt, but it turned out awesome!

I found a book ages ago about picture quilts, and I wanted to design one for my mum. The thing is that the book included the patchwork part as uneven "bits" as in it had no squares, triangles or any other simple shape, but still had straight lines... and the hap-hazard cuts would all be sewn together and eventually would end up as a picture. Meaning any shape really was possible as the shapes could be of any size.

It was a beautiful book, and I have misplaced my copy - does anyone know what sort of quilt I am talking about? I'm not sure if there is a special term for it

Thanks for any help!!
