Do exactly what makes you happy. Honest.
For me I far prefer a pattern (hand or machine) than no pattern. I see my quilts from many different angles, and I enjoy the play of light and dark that the quilting itself provides from the angles when I don't see the patchwork pattern
It really doesn't matter a whit what anyone else likes...unless you are quilting for competition. Then everything matters!
got all my sashing and corner stones on today, now I'm making sheets of strings for one of the borders. And listening to New Tricks. Life is good
