First and foremost we are quilters and in that there is a lot of latitude for discovering our own personal desires, goals, tastes and style in quilt making. Much of the answer is dependent upon the person answering the question and how they perceive themselves in quilt making. Do they want to be an artist, professional, competitive quilter? If the answer is yes, how are they pursuing their goals and dreams? Does the quilter just want to make quilts for the sheer joy in the making and giving? <br />No matter what our "designation", whether chosen or given, we are all still quilters. And as such deserve to be respected for our quilt making. <br /><br />TeriAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2579843062481218635.post-85810748119245864192015-03-18T19:02:48.553-04:002015-03-18T19:02:48.553-04:00Hey Barbars, first thanks for stopping by my blog....Hey Barbars, first thanks for stopping by my blog.

Some I may have to ask some of my quilting friends too. <br /><br />Good enough - done is done but some I like to do better on and will try harder (usually ones I think I might enter into a judged quilt show-local one). <br /><br />No such thing as a quilt police. I think we are our own worst critics so we police ourselves sometimes. I have never met a quilt I didn't like. it may not always be my style but I can find beauty in almost everything. <br /><br />And...we can call ourselves anything we want. I do art and traditional quilts but don't feel I need to call myself something other than a quilter. When I'm with my art group I do call myself a fiber artist but usually just a quilter. <br /><br />I will have to pose these questions to my friends and see what they have to say.<br /><br />Good post.Barbara Sindlingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05864004276255587051noreply@blogger.com
