You can't make a quilt out of 50% off fabric at Joann's and expect to win a prize in a big business quilt show, but how many of you are making those kinds of quilts?
And is it true that you have to buy only the highest quality in order to win in a show? Do they judge the fabric itself? I thought they were judging the piecing and quilting skills. Is that one of the things they are judging when they judge the quilt?
