I think we were talking about blendiness from the earliest levels. "Quilting" has also been referred to as "Brady Bunching" because the nine squares all distinct resemble the opening sequence to the TV show "Brady Bunch". Any visual reference you see to Brady Bunch is probably a comment on "quilting".

Or maybe quilting has a more nuanced meaning? To my mind, it seems a good description of GIO's most recent level (3008). Using repeated tiles to fill out a level. Personally, I find non-blending and hogging levels both to be contrary to the spirit of Gridcosm. However, it is technically allowed. Ultimately, it has been interesting to see how the "play nice" attitude interlocks and conflicts with the "spam ego" attitude. The patterns that conflict creates can be seen echoing across the cosm.
