    I like what Annie said, 'Quilting is to be loved and enjoyed!'(pg. 1)I make the quilts as nice as I can and if there are a few mistakes in them they will still be warm and filled with love and to me that is what counts more than perfection.

    I can't follow patterns either...so piecing here is very simple! But my applique is a different story...I design my own and absolutely love it!

    Most of mine are just alternating squares. I have done a couple quilts with a tumbler and used the 1930's repro fabrics, a couple of pinwheel and one quilt that came from a pattern.

    I haven't been quilting long enough to feel comfortable doing a quilt with lots of different squares or pieces to it.

    I actually prefer doing wall hangings and table runners for the holidays. I like quirky quilts, anything that stands out. My other favorite are the ones made out of flannel with the seams on the outside. I know there is a name for this type of quilt, but am having a brain fart at the moment. Sorry.

    I think the least fanciest quilt I have completed to date is the turning twenty for my daughter. I enjoy cutting and piecing fabrics together.. I haven't done a basic block quilt yet, but I won't say that I will not do one.

    My best friend from high school does the basic block quilts.. she has them done much faster than I can get mine done.. and they are loved just as much if not more than mine!

    As everyone else has said.. they are all loved..

    I need to edit this as I don't do really fancy quilts.. what you see in my avatar is to me is fancy..

    I love the basics! I love the star blocks and like to do anything that is a 12 inch block or bigger. I love to just quilt and nothing real fancy here. I would like to challenge myself more, but, I am a comfortable quilter and stick with what I know! LOL
