ditto, I'm glad I saw it too. Sorry you got short changed.
Please don't get me wrong, I don't feel short changed or cheated by the judging results and the lack of a top placing ribbon. If I felt that way I should just stop showing now. I'm mostly upset at the ribbon awarding confusion and the lack of category organization. I guess I took for granted that all shows clearly displayed which category each quilt was in since that's how it's been done at the handful of shows I've attended. I had not ever been to this one though.
I am slightly upset that my Honorable Mention never got placed on my quilt. Not the end of the world but if you earned a ribbon it would be nice for the spectators to see that (it's about showing off a little, right? ;) ). But just as you learn which restaurants are good to eat at and not by going to them, you learn which shows are worth showing at by entering them.
