I went to a quilt show this last weekend and they gave each of the attendees a ballot so we could pick our favorites. Last year, they gave us categories, which I liked much better than just telling us to pick out our favorites. However, the members of the guild that sponsored the show were allowed to vote on the categories.
I have to admit that I was a bit of a "snob" when it came to voting because I wouldn't vote for any that were quilted by another person. I figure that if one is going to get credit for someone else's professional quilting job, those who are still learning how to do the quilting part don't stand a chance. So, I voted for those that were done by the same person.
My question is: In a juried show, do they expect that all the quilting and piecing is done by the SAME person?
