Years ago the quilt that won best of show in Padacuh had a pieced back that was almost as striking as the front. This was entered by a man, but for the life of me I can't remember his name. Holice might remember who he is. The theme was airplanes. The 1st time I saw this quilt I was thinking "Wow, what a great quilt!" Then I discovered that I was looking at the back. LOL It sounds like this was either this woman's personal opinion, or she had been told that by someone she considered to be an expert so she believed it with no question.
