Yes, thank you, that's exactly how I feel. I don't go around telling others that they HAVE to use a machine to bind, so why do they feel they must tell us the "correct" way?

What drives me nuts is when (usually for joining Quilt As You Go blocks) someone explains the lengths they go to so no seams show. What about all those seams on the quilting! (I wanted to put that in all caps, but restrained myself.) Don't quilting seams count?
