Yes, I know you don't want dirty hands grabbing the quilts, so why not have baby wipes handy so people can be sure their hands are clean?
I'm very much a 'touchy/feely' gotta handle the fabric, person. I don't think I would enjoy a quilt show that I was forbidden to touch the quilts. But I would appreciate it being easy for me to do so without wondering if my hands were clean.
