i showed my cat quilt to someone, the only sourpuss in the buch, who said, "Oh too bad she crossed the lines". well, how ele do you quilt a fish????i can't believe that she said that.
is there really a "NO CROSS" rule to siplleling

Perhaps that is THAT person's rule! I tend to ignore those who make those types of comments, as they are just jealous of your work!

Quilting should be enjoyed. There are too many stresses in life and quilting should be your "out"....to get away from all that. My sewing room is my little safe haven.
Free motion is exactly that.....free to do what ever you want.
If you were entering your quilt in a competetion than one should be fully aware of the rules that the judges will be basing their decision on.
I agree with everyone.....just enjoy!

Someone here once posted the saying "Don't let her comments live rent free in your head" I love that saying and now live by it!

My Quilt, My Rules. There are some people out there that are soooooooooooo unccomfortable in their own skin, that they have to be critical of others. Ignore them and move forward,
