Would you appreciate it if someone asked you about it?
Or would you consider the person a member of the dreaded 'quilt police'?
I would like to have someone mention it to me and ask if it was intentional? If not intentional, I'd like to be able to change/fix it before it's quilted.
For me it is ALL in how they say it. "Quilt Police" know how to say things like "NEVER, HOW COULD YOU?, WHAT WAS THE IDEA, YOU KNOW THAT'S NOT HOW THAT IT DONE!!!". When I see something that doesn't look like it fits (for some reason), I say something like "Can I ask a question?". I think we ALL would like the chance to fix a mistake if we've missed it. I know that I will sew late a night, so a 2 or 3 AM every thing "Looked Good", but in the light of day that's NOT always the case.
