    Your quilt is stunning sorry for all the problems you had at the show. Next show will be better.

    Definitely agree with this!

    Beautiful quilt! I never put my quilts in shows. I've seen quilts that awarded ribbons and I don't see why. It's in the eye of the beholder.

    I am willing to bet that judge will not be invited back. That was very unprofessional. Glad you got honorable mention. Your quilt is lovely.

After the judge left, they locked the doors and changed all the awards and, you guessed it, changed the awards to their friends. I decided then not to enter any more shows at that guild!
    OMG The nerve of some people!

    So sorry to hear about the disorganization. Your quilt is one of my all time favorites that I've seen on this board.
