don't feel bad, Alex Anderson once told that she entered a quilt that she was sure would be a best of Show quilt and didn't even get an honorable mention as well known as she is. I don't understand the judging. At our Oklahoma State fair, I wouldn't have agreed with any of the winners they picked. I have never entered a quilt show. I plan to show 2 of mine at a local quilt show at Chickasha next month. It's not going to be judged. I like that better.
