Question about Quilting?
So, I'm interested in quilting and I've read a few books on different quilts/types, how to recognize them, different stitches, and "how-to" for beginners. My question is, could I not simplify the making of a quilt by making "mini" quilts with blocks(as in, taking a completed block and converting it and it only into a quilt), making a bunch of them and then sewing them together with a pillow stitch? It would provide an interesting feel to it.
Any advice would be wonderful, but please try and focus on the above criteria before going off on a "make-a-baby-quilt" crusade 
Repeat after me: "There are no quilting police. There are no quilting police. There are no quilting police." Make whatever you want to make. There's absolutely no reason not to. Others may not give their wholehearted approval to it, but who cares? You're making it for you, so make what YOU want.
Your idea is not unique, honestly. I have seen single quilt blocks used as pillow covers; I have also seen them framed and hung on the wall. Of course you can sew multiple single blocks together to make a quilt. That's been done for generations.
