I'm a 2 working on becoming a 3 and aspire to be a 4 when I grow up!! Which is not to say that my work is careless...I take pride in everything I make but I sew for the fun of it now; "free spirit" quilting doesn't mean doing a sloppy job. It's letting your imagination soar, ignoring "the rules" when you want, while constructing something you're proud of and having a heck of a good time while you're doing it!!
