Take your quilt to the Fair with pride!
Your LQS ladies would not be nudging you if they did not think it was worthy ... after all they're reputation is on the line too! :)
It's an impressive quilt and looks pretty darned perfect in all different "judged" areas. I'm sure your Dad is going to be sooooo proud to see it hung at the Fair. And chances are it'll bring tears to your eyes too.
I'm gathering together some things to take to the Fair this weekend ... and yes I'm nervious. At the same time, I'm proud of what I am taking ... and leaving the others that don't make my personal top list at home. If they place, great ... if not, I'll still be proud, and will still show in another Fair the following weekend.
Good Luck!!!
