I saw your post and had to do some research - I had no idea that quilts could be entered in shows that weren't all your own work!
Now I'm confused. Is it the piecer or the actual quilter that wins and how is it judged?
Does it make a difference then, if someone can afford to pay a LAQ for an intricate, expensive pattern and someone has a simpler pattern they've done themselves?
I'll be watching this post.
