Minding Your Ps & Qs

Have you noticed the proliferation of labels that can apply to those caught up with the world of patchwork, quilting and textile art? For example:

• stitcher
• sewer (unfortunate-looking when written down)
• patchworker
• quilter
• quiltmaker
• art quilter
• fibre artist
• textile artist
• etc

For myself, I prefer the term "quiltmaker" - it's simple, descriptive and functional. Kind of how I like my quilts.
