I hope I'm not misinterpreting luvstoquilt's point-it's the feeling or concern I think many Quilters have- how those who don't quilt view our art. Most people don't paint, sculpt or blow glass, but readily consider anyone who does an "artist". I think the struggle for our art form to be truly accepted as art stems from the fact that it was a needed household skill that has evolved, and many don't really get that. If it's hanging or displayed in a gallery, museum or even a public building-well of course that's art, but not necessarily the quilting family members, friends or coworkers do. Getting back to luvstoquilt's post, I think concern that the term "scrappy" isn't helping to change how the world views what we do is the point, and perhaps a new descriptive adjective or phrase is needed. I'm just not sure how to accomplish that! Let's see, what about "multi-faceted quilts"?
