Optical illusions
Are hand quilted
Use scraps in beautiful and inventive ways
Make outstanding and beautiful use of fabrics and colors

Are wonky so you don't have to match seams!

I like quilts that
1. Use Pat Speth's mehods of units. You can audition them and come up with a pleasing design or use the setting she has shown.
2. I love scrap quilts.
3 I also love civil war quilts and bargello quilts.
4. Most of all I love donation quilts.

...are like eye candy.
...that make others say OMG.
...that you can really tell the recipient is amazed.

Made me proud to make
Fits receiver theme
Giving with joy
Used up scraps but looked intentional

I love quilts:
* That use up my little scraps, not my yardage. (A four inch square is considered yardage.)
* Are going to be used.
* Are loved by all those grandchildren and their parents.
* That go to charity.
* That you made!

Ditto - more or less my view too except for a wall hanging, table topper, placemats, etc. occasionally.
