    Default If you were a quilt - what would you be?

    I think I went with a denim and chamois flannel rag quilt - with bound edges - because I like to think I am sturdy - but sometimes I appear kind of rough and scraggly - but I am actually quite "together" and hate loose ends.

    (Question seen on another board - M said it's okay to ask it over here)

    I would be a Crazy quilt since I am an admitted Maniac Quilter!

    I'd probably be a paper pieced quilt. High maintenance and very precise, but worth it in the end!

    Oh definitely a sampler! I need variety in life and have always wondered what is on the other side of the hill.

    An original design made with the best fabrics, every color used, with scalloped borders and lots of embellishments.

    I would have LOADS of color, and most of it batiks. A nice, fairly large lap quilt to be used and appreciated. Most probably the pattern would be Boxed Squares, my favorite.

    I would be a scrap quilt in earth tones. Not exactly frugal but a little more conservative. Hate to waste anything

    I guess I'd be a sampler, my brain is every which way, a little of this and a little of that. Amazingly it all gets done/finished in the end. Works for me!

    I'd be a plaid flannel quilt. Just 6" squares sewn together with a soft flannel backing. I am a simple, low key, no drama quilt that offers warm mom hugs.

    Amine would have to be symmetrical and no scrappy pattern. Not sure perhaps a Bargello symmetrical pattern in shades of red with no pink. Just big enough to snuggle under.
