I prefer piecing. Traditional quilts -to me- are utilitarian. Quilting is my creative outlet. (If you love traditional you can skip my opinion.) Flimsies are easier to store than finished quilts. When there’s a destination for a finished quilt it’ll get quilted. Physically, lap size is my limit. Larger go to long arm.
Art quilts————-that’s a totally different discussion as the quilting is part of the design. And I’m in my zone-creative element.
Are we having fun yet? I worked to survive, not for fun. Utilitarian quilting is work.
