I always thought that if you saw a painting someone made and they told you what they wanted, you wouldn't say "I could go to Walmart and buy a poster for $10". We are artists, just like painters. Our paint is our fabric. We make beautiful artwork plus it keeps you warm. We do more than painters do. We have to piece the quilt, then piece the backing, then layer it, then quilt it, then bind it. It's an awful lot of work. My husband only sees the finished blocks or tops - he never sees me in production mode. He'd be amazed at how I put blocks together and how I put the top together.
