    I love the second quilt. The colors are gorgeous. I love your thinking even more! I'm with you on this subject!

    I love what you've done and especially love the quilt with the batiks....wow!
    I agree with all you said. We should make our quilts with our own ideas in the colors we love. Patterns are wonderful, but they are just a starting point. Of course, I continue to collect books and patterns, just like I collect fabric. I love seeing ideas from other quilters. There are SO many talented people on this board. It's awesome to look at everyone's work.

    well, I think they are great, and no matter what gets me inspired, pretty much most of mine won't be bothering anybody's copyrights, bc I do so much changing. Good for you, JJ!!! :thumbup:

    They are ALL scrumptious, however I'm leaning toward the teal and chocolate one. I've got room at my house anytime.

    The french braid quilt is my favorite. I tend to make up quilts as I go along, too. I have never made a quilt exactly according to directions...

    thank you, but my point was, there were NO DIRECTIONS - I didn't use a pattern from magazine, or store-bought, or book...

    Good job on all those quilts, and even better on voicing your opinions. You go Girl, and I agree wholeheartedly
