Musings on Quilts
One of the comments I received on a previous post prompted me to remember a passage from a book. The character was talking about how quilts reflect the personality of the maker. The comment was on my Chinese Coins quilt. She mentioned the vivid blue sashing and border setting it off.

Unless I am making one for someone else, I'd have to agree that my quilts do reflect a great deal of my personality...very traditional, logical, etc. I can see these traits in the choices of fabrics, and in my quilting stitches and patterns, too! Interesting post, Gene! Made me think....
Ummmm....I think many of my quilt projects show I like the color GREEN! :)
many of my quilts show.......that i really don't know how to quilt
My quilts reflect what's in my head and has to come out. I've got alot of ideas floating around.... LOL
My scrappy unplanned quilts reflect my spontaneity, the way I chafe against (what seem to me to be) arbitrary rules, my frugal nature, the pack rat in me, my love of color and diversity, my unconventional and sometimes unexpected way of doing things and seeing things.
Yep, it does show your personality, fun and colorful!!
This quilt reminds me of DNA, as in it is who you are as a quilter. Also, it reminds me of ladders. It's going somewhere.. or we are?
Oh yes! I think they do. I rarely plan mine out, they are usually a bit wonky or untraditional. I am a bit scattered and I think my quilts reflect my "wild creativity"!
Great post! Love it!
If quilts reflect personality, I am pschitzophrenic... No, that's an illness not a personality. I don't like doing the same thing twice, straight lines bore me. I like trying new things. Quilting reflects two sides of my personality - my determination to master the difficult and my rush to get things done. Lends itself to some interesting results
