So, what is the "legal" definition of a quilt??

Of course it's a quilt! But as someone else said, if you are selling it online, you might want to add a few more descriptive terms than just "quilt". I think sometimes a "quilt" is about as descriptive as a "dog". Perhaps " flannel, hand-tied" would let those who are looking for that know what you have to sell.

I will never understand why people who have never sewn a stitch in their lives, let alone made a quilt thingk they're so qualified! I am still a newbie, a rank amateur, and I would never try to tell anyone else what they've made is "not a quilt". I was one of five children, and times were financially very hard, but the ladies from our church gave us fabrics, all kinds of fabrics (you see, our home burned and we lost everything) and my mother made tied quilts because they were faster to make. With a little instruction, my sisters and I were able to help a little, and we were able to keep warm despite the winter cold. Someone needs to get a life of their own! There's an old song out from some 30+ years ago "Mind your own business, if you mind your business, then you won't be minding mine" .. .LOL!

I went back and looked at my listing, under the details I said, knotted quilt, flannel front and back with polylite batting. Hmm. Couldn't be too much clearer. Love this board and all the support that is always here for the asking.

Maybe the QP is able to read but has an extreme problem, with comprehension.

I love ALL Y'ALL !!!! This post has just cracked me up this morning...and i needed the smiles today. To "oldquilter" .....forget that it's even about the quilts....there are just some people who can only feel good about themselves if they are making someone else feel "bad" about themself. Brush it off and forget it.
