I love making quilts from scraps - they are always my favorites at quilt shows too. But, I also love hand applique and cannot believe some of the beautiful artsy quilts that people make - I am always in awe when I see them. I am a patten follower too - don't do well when I have to design my own things - even blocks can be a challenge to me if I have to design one.
It's so nice that we all can make quilts we love - there are no wrong ways ...
