If I like his suggestion, then I go ahead and change something, and, if I don't change something, then I can rest assured that I have a good product. Since he doesn't quilt (and cannot understand why anyone would take perfectly good fabric, cut it up into little pieces and then sew it all back together again) ... his novice eye happens to see the things most people see or do not see ... he is a big help!
