Why Do You Show Other People's Quilts on Facebook?

"...I follow you on Facebook and wondered why you show other people's quilts and not just your own? Aren't you helping your competition?....I don't quilt but I love quilts!"

Hi Amy,

Here's the magical thing about quilts. You change one color and the design can look completely different so I enjoy seeing what other quilters are doing.

Maybe it's because I'm a gardener but I always start thinking about colors to help give a quilt it's tone - elegant, country - and my favorite customer adjective - "squishy."

Quilts are a form of art because each quilter brings their point of view, taste in design and color, and in some cases, life experiences; each quilt is reflecting that quilter's talent, perspective and sense of drama, or humor.

Since I specialize in designing custom quilts, I not only appreciate what other quilters do but every little nuance inspires me. You're enjoying seeing the quilts, aren't you?

It's not competition at all, it's professional admiration!
