I am just the opposite of you. I love to hand quilt and do all my quilts that way. I do sew my binding on the front by machine then turn to the back and hand stitch the back. When I see machine stitched quilts, they make me think of factory/assembly line work. We each have our own likes and dislikes and no you are not a weirdo. It is good to be different and can you imagine what this world would be like if we were all "alike" in all things that we do. You quilt it your way, after all it is your quilt. Variety is the spice of life.
