    Sorry, but I think I offended you. I wasn't insinuating that piecers weren't quilters. They are, for sure. Also, when I said female dr. I meant a dr. for females. Guess I really ticked you off!! Didn't mean to.

    OH..I don't think she was ticked off....she is really nice. Probably just a mis communication. :thumbup:
    I think we are all quilters.....I send out all my bindings..but I am still a quilter..I just don't like some parts of the process. :wink:
    I think we all have those things.

    I was thinking about this today and came up with something that might "dignify" these "piecers".

    A mixologist is a bartender.
    A gynecologist is a female doctor.
    A radiologist is one who reads x-rays.
    A cosmetologist is a hairdresser.

    How about a "pieceologist"?
    Or what about a "piecing specialist"?
    Don't these sound "special"?

    Can anyone think of any other title to give these quilters??

    Well, actually they'd be piecers not quilters but really does it matter if you're having fun?

    That's the problem with writing. You can't see facial expressions and hear sarcasm! Just remember it's all for fun.
    Personally I like to piece the tops by hand and machine and I don't care what you call me. Just call me if there is a good fabric sale somewhere cause i like to collect fabric too!
