I know a longarmer this happened to. It is dishonest, pure and simple. It is also a dishonest way to win, unfair to the other entrants who also used a longarmer and correctly entered their quilts in the group category. Of course credit should always be given where credit is due!
Custom quilts are one thing, but what about quilts that are quilted with all over computertized pantos? What about the LQS where the employees run the machines all day/ every day/ 6 days a week? Are the quilt shows really meant to be free advertising???

I don't know the answer, but I question this.
