i agree with the majority , dont let the judges comments bring you down what one judge thinks another one might think differant, i have been entering quilts since my first year of quilting and the first year irecieved 3 rd place and was mad about the judges comments , but i listened to what the judge said and corrected it on the next quilt , and for the last 3 years i have placed in first , so now i consider the comments and have learned from them which has improved my quilts , and i still love those first quilts as much as i love the first place ones !
