In my world, narrow stripes with the perfect colors are a most delightful binding. Other than that, my quilts rarely feature stripes.
As for foliage, I'm not so worried about chopping off leaves, but everything in the plant world grows upward. So I guess I have a "grow up" policy. LOL
Regarding animal fabrics, it took me years--and I do mean years--to buy them because, inevitably, I would have to chop off heads or legs. Just couldn't do it. Can't tell you how many people told me to "get over it" or "it's just fabric, the animals aren't alive" or "the fabric was made to be cut." If I wasn't afraid of cutting myself by closing my eyes while finally, reluctantly, slicing into my first animal fabric, I would have. I still try very hard not to cut heads off but I think I've triumphed over my severed-legs phobia.
