Attended a recent quilt show at a fair and the main prize winning quilt appeared to be a cheater quilt to me that was so overly quilted it was absolutely flat. I saw no seam lines what-so-ever in it's appearance. Seemed to be quilted in maybe 6" blocks that you just couldn't get another stich into. Had to have been professionally quilted. To some it may have been pretty, but just wasn't my kind of quilt.
