Unfortunately we all know some self-appointed "quilt police" who point out every possible negative (in their opinion) about anyones work. Theirs, of course is always perfect and if someone sees a flaw they are either too polite to mention it, or don't want to provoke wrath! Maybe they are just jealous.
