I know what happened to one of my prized quilts at a local fair and believe me I would never enter another one anywhere. It came back to me torn, decorations hanging torn and torn off and with a lot of oil on it. The judge complained on the back of the Third Place ribbon about the condition of the quilt. While I called to complain that it did not leave my hands like that I could not reach anyone. I feel so sorry for this lady.
Oh, I am so sorry that happened to you!
I've entered a lot of shows, and never once did I feel that they didn't take care of my quilt, but I'm not sure I would trust the local county fair to take as good care.
