Narrative:
After making a normal traffic pattern and landing; a gentleman told me I was very close to an airplane on short final and that the other pilot had to make a steep bank to avoid me. I am concerned that a nonstandard procedure may have led to the incident. I had no visual of the other airplane I was just told it got very close and he made an evasive maneuver.
