I entered a quilt in our guild show that I thought could have been better, but we needed quilts hanging. Lo and Behold when I went in the next morning there was a 2nd place ribbon hanging on my quilt. I was surprised and thrilled and it certainly made me be a little less critical of my work. Your quilt will do just fine and you can just ignore the critique if you would like. Enjoy showing it off, it was a lot of work
