    That's what I have seen, too. The show at Houston has a categorie called "Merit Quilting, Hand" - the only category where it's possible to enter a wholecloth.

    CongratulationsI I saw your quilt there and admired how small and neat your stitches were, well deserved.

    I'm a hand quilter, nowhere near to your level I must add, but I love to see others work and did think there seemed more hand quilts on show this time, which was lovely and they all were beautiful.
