I have heard from quite a few people on the board who only like to piece quilts. When they finish piecing one they put it away and start something else or send it out to be quilted. They seem to almost "apologize" for not liking to quilt it. I personally like to do both but I feel each one to their own liking.
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??

These are great! lol
Hmmmm....... how about a fabric buying specialist!!! :D:D
That would give a lot of us an important title!!!!!!! :thumbup:

lol i think most off us are fabric purchasing specialists

I like it " FBS" for short! Sign your full name and then FBS.

Piecemaker? Honestly, I'm better at piecing than machine quilting, but I'm still a quilter. And a gynecologist is not a female doctor, it's a doctor specializing in the female reproductive tract. There are plenty of male doctors who are gynecologists.

Okay, here goes:
Susan Margaret K(%&$, FBS

Looks lofty to me! :thumbup: LOL LOL

How about a piecing technican!
Or ....Strategic Placement Enginner
Or ... Textile Recontructionist
Or ....Fabric Adaptive Re-use Specialist
Or ....Director of Fiber Merging

Whatever the title, it made me chuckle. Love all the suggestions. And I don't have one to add.

I like them all!!!

Bond, 003- Licensed to buy more than 3 yards!

I like the "Fabric Reconstructionist"!!!

Those are hilarious, Lori! I am sure I am one if not all of these! Linda S***N, SPE, TR, FARS, AND DFM (forgot PT, Piecing Technician).

love them all

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.

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

And someday you might send all those tops to the longarmer.

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!

Actually, I already have my own name for liking to piece tops but not really wanting to do the quilting............I'm a TOPPER!

I am a TOPPER,too!

Those would look good on a resume. Could get you a job.

I agree, no one should apologize for any part of quilting! A lot of people tie their quilts, and it is still a quilt!! :) It comes down to quilting should be something you love!! :)
