Same here!
A few years ago I entered a quilt in our local fair. A couple of my friends went on opening night and called to tell me there was a blue ribbon hanging on my quilt! I was so excited and raced to see it for myself, hubby in tow with a camera around his neck. I can't begin to tell you how disappointed and deflated I was when I saw 20 blue ribbons hanging on quilts all around mine. And my prize money? A check for a whopping $2.50. More of a slap in the face, really.
