I understand where you're coming from when you talk about your points not being on point! I started off with a rail fence quilt that still isn't finished because I was so enamored with fabric and ideas that I quickly lost interest. I made a couple of small traditional quilts after that and learned something about myself in the process--I need more freedom. At that point, I fell in love with art quilts because of the freedom from rules it can provide and the multitude of materials that can be used. Now don't get me wrong--there's nothing wrong with being a traditional quilter. If I had the patience to perfect some of those techniques, I'm sure they would come in handy with art quilts but since I don't, I'll just plug along in my land of ruleless oblivion. Have a great day!
