Yes, that works but it doesn't look as stylish. I do use the line tool, but if I could join up the lines to form a shape and fill it but still have the outline look like a paint stroke, then I wouldn't have to use Photoshop Elements filters. Remember my goal is to use entirely open source software. Jon was asking how I used the product and I was explaining. This may sound unusual or hard to do but Expression was able to do that - the one that Microsoft bought out and I think the current version of Illustrator can do this too. This is one of the major trends in vector drawing programs - to make the illustration with natural media style while still maintaining the vectors.

Another thing I look for is the ability to draw freehand the outline and then choose a fill.
Haven't you tried the Pencil tool (F6)?
