LOL there sure are quilting snobs!! That is why I don't like guilds, there are some anal folks that think their way is the only way to quilt, wrong, you can do what ever you want. On the other hand if you enter a competition the quilt police are there and they do have "guidelines" so if you ever do enter a show be prepared for critical remarks...just sayin, don't mean to open up a can of worms....
