i feel for you every time a quilter puts time and i mean a lot of time and thought in to making a quilt that is suppose to be displayed for viewing and judging it should be displayed with as much appreciation for the person who took the time to create this master peice it might not be the monalisa but it is the monalisa to the person who put their time and thought into it. shame on the fair and the judges for just folding them and putting them on the shelf if that is how you wanted it displayed you could have done that yourself at home. i have run into the same problems at the local fair i show my quilts at i create quilts for different organizations and everyone wants to purchase tickets for a quilt that has been on display the correct way for the public to see and judge everyone wants a quilt with a ribbon but in my eyes every quilt displayed the correct way is a blue ribbon winner.next year before you fill out your application for the quilt to enter the fair remind them there is an entrance fee for the quilt and it should be shown in the correct manner bet you would never find cows folded up and sitting on a shelf for display remind them of that
