Soo many people go to these shows expecting garage and rummage sale prices! It's an "ART SHOW". Not always a "Starving Artist'. I remember when finger nail polish was spilled on my mother's "store bought" quilt. She mentioned it to neighbor who knew another neighbor who quilted and that gal fixed my mother's store bought quilt. The space was the size of a 12" block. It had matching shams. She took part of the one of the shams and repaired the quilt. She even fixed the sham with part of the other sham. People were appalled my mother paid $15.00 for the repair. The lady said it was too much! I can remember Mom telling her she just wanted her to know she appreciated her talent and work. It was hand-quilted and you had to look very closely to see where the damage was. You could only see it from the back and you had to look close there also. Your work is beautiful!
