I really hate to say this but the last couple years I've lost interest in the quilts because of the long arm quilting. It has taken so much out of the quilting world that I get disappointed. I love long arm quilting but I think it's taken over the quilting world & is done way too much on the quilts. I walk thru & look at them, take a few pics the I get my fill & head to the vendor. The Japanese have the most wonderful quilts in our shows in Paducah. Their workmanship is awesome & their stitching is so so unbelievable. I don't know how they get into the AMERICAN Quilt Show but they are something to see. Hope they haven't lost any in this terrible terrible trauma they are going thru.
