I would say get judged. It's worthwhile to get another person's opinion of your work because sometimes we miss things that we didn't even know to look for and it will help us become better quilters.
Remember though that it is just their opinion, so be ready to take the critique with a grain of salt and not take it to heart. While they just see fabric, technical aspects and stitches, we see all the time/decisions and love that went into making it.
I have one going in a show in June and I know I'm going to get skewered for the back, because my corners are off, but I still think it's worthwhile to enter because I want an opinion on how I did with the technique I used.
Let us know how it turns out!
