    I would be a soft, buttery yellow quilt with appliqued flowers scattered randomly and with plain spaces enough to give me breathing room. I like to be on the periphery observing the beauty around me.

    I would be an Art quilt no pattern to my design and no precise corners, points, or even stitching. Most of me is just like this, but the colors would be soft and calming as secretly I am.

    I would probably be a quilt that has a combination of applique and piecing with many blocks of my own design or modified from the pattern to be unique. I would be wearing lots of blue fabrics that play well with other friends of many different colors. I love everything but especially applique. Hand quilted of course, just like one I spent like 5 years making that is on our queen size bed. It is Grandma's Country Album if anyone has ever seen that pattern from many years ago. I loved it when I made it and I still love it now. What a fun question!

    I would be a strictly scrappy quilt made with stash only, in bright colors. My aim in life is to make others smile, and leave a very little "carbon footprint".

    I would be an old fashion vintage quilt, that has been around for many years, and still holding on...love the simplicity and not so perfect seams, and quilting... my OCD won't let me have crooked seams, points not matching, everything has to be precise...but I'm still happy with my one quilt at a time project...

    A log cabin, without a doubt! Pieced in circles.
    When I owned the shop all those years ago, I was told by a dear friend I looked like I had one foot nailed to the floor and the other pumping hard. Story of my life, LOL!

    Great topic, by the way.

    That's a hard one. I would probably have to saw a Sampler quilt with a little bit of everything thrown in along with my favorite blocks to make. That's a very interesting question, look forward to seeing the answers you get.
