Every year at the Ocean Shores Quilt Show in washington state there is a booth that gives out the "There are no Quilt Police" pins. I grab one avery year and always wind up giving it away to someone who admires it. I just happen to still have last years pin Rebecca if you are interested in it. Call me and I will mail it to you. I will send # in private message.

It will be up for grabs if Rebecca isn't interested. And of course next year I will grab a few just in case :wink:

I would love to have one of those quilt police pens if you have any extra that nobody wants. Just let me know and I will be glad to send you the postage for it. Thanks

Most experienced quilters piece how they like and beginners do like to learn the proper way to piece a pattern. However, for those entering quilts in competitions, quilt police or judge, must be a consideration in whether you let a somewhat uneven seam stay in. . .

Are they, like, gonna rat on us? then to whom?...

Unfortunately, eliminating the words won't eliminate the perpetrators. What we need to eliminate is the critical spirit of the quilt police types. That's what's so neat about this board - the people are so helpful and so supported. I love it!

Do you mean eliminate the term "quilt police"?? Why? I think it is funny lol. Anyway, I loved the comment...give them a doughnut and they will go away...I say Ignore them, eat the doughnut yourself and keep quilting

I wouldn't call that a "quilt police," I'd call it a QUILT GUARDIAN ANGEL. I'd like one of those.
