I have only seen one quilt i didn't like in my entire life and that one was all stripes in funky colors. and the quilting was crazy. if i remember right the quilt was called dizzy. it was done well but not to my taste. i don't think that i would be a good judge. i like them all. I had asked a judge at the quilt show i was at recently and she said that they take classes to become a judge or appraiser. i thought that was interesting.
