Default Sampler quilts - - -

Do you have any preferences about them?

Like using the same colors - or colors from the same color families - for all the blocks?

Or the same grid - or all even or all odd grids?

Or the same "type" of block (like all stars or all drunkard's path units, for examples)?

Or - are you an "anything and everything goes" sampler quilt person?

I have seen some "anything and everything" tops that are stunning with great settings -

For myself - I would want the same colors, on the same grid, with the same "type" of block - which sounds kind of boring - but something I would be comfortable with. I like to see how many variations I can get out of a limited theme. I also think the blocks would be easier to arrange/set if all the backgrounds were similar - not necessarily matching, but all light or all dark or all shades of medium pink, for examples -
