I really am leaving that up to that person. Some people like to applique, do redwork, or piece work. If your my daughter - she just sews anything together and makes a a really long piece then cuts its to makes blocks/shapes, figues you name it. Go figure - she says its my fault, because when she was really small I gave her all the scrap fabric to play with. She has never followed a pattern. I quess that is probably why she likes doing it that way NO rules.
