Wow! I could see these being helpful to learn stitch in the ditch, testing quilting patterns, etc. It just kinda drove me bonkers when my friend said her fav quilt was one that was a "cheater". :x Ah, to each their own.

Good find Adriane. I didn't know they made so many different ones.

I occasionally use cheaters for quilt backs.

I may purchase a dresden plate one to practice echo quilting.

That second site really has some pretty "cheaters" - and the prices are really reasonable.

I have done this too, and it worked out great. I agree, it's fantastic to practice your quilting stitches on, and I am not offended by the term, "cheater", but you still do a lot of work to put one together, 3 layers, all the quilting on it, the binding. I'd rather call it something like, a 'quicker quilt', or something like that, lol! :D

I like that - quick quilt! :)

There are lots of different patterns avaliable in cheater panels. I have used them to practice learning hand quilting because there are no seams to make it harder! :lol:

It's cheater fabric. I really love some of it.

Are you thinking of a printed panel?
