I can think of a few:
Press seams open vs press to the dark side Cotton thread vs Polyester thread Stitch in the ditch is directly on the seam VS just to the side of the seam. |

I'd say there are a blue zillion folks out there who still do not know what machine quilting really is. They envision a $39 Walmart quilt, not the beauties created here. |
How much quilting on a quilt is too much usually brings out the beast in a few people.

Can't say I've ever heard any of the two groups ever debate about what should be or not regarding wash or not wash...about fabrics....etc. But than again I've only been in one over a year and the other one 9 months so perhaps haven't gotten to know them well enough yet. As for "quilt police" I tell them around here that I live to annoy the quilt police. LOL |

How about binding? Both steps machine or one machine and one hand.
Of couse most of these fall into the same category as the big three: Mac vs pc Nikon vs Canon. And Mayonnaise vs Miracle Whip. Nobody can do better than to agree to disagree on those and I guess a lot of these quilting "discussions" are the same. |
