Quilts are the same. I don't like scrappy quilts at all and have gone almost 50 years without making one. I do, however, understand the pleasure they give to other quilters and users and that's what matters I believe.
There's no real need to understand 'why' you don't like making them is there? It's just not your taste/style. Simple as that. Better to pour your time and talent into a quilt style that you love because that love always shows in the end product.
She said exactly what I was thinking.
Unless you are in a class or are making a commission quilt, create what speaks to you, makes your heart sing, and forego the other styles, colors, designs, and fabrics. There will be plenty to keep you happy for years and years!
