Animal hair on quilts! Ugh! I used to judge a huge quilt show every year. Animal hair on quilts got to me, forget that I'm allergic to it--anyway, one had so much hair on it that I refused to judge it. My comment on the quilt card--"I don't judge animal hair."
I had dogs for 27 years and understand, but if you're going to give away/enter a quilt show, make sure that they are clean.
