I don't think it's really "cheating". I wouldn't lose sleep over it... it's a quilt you're proud of, you haven't shown before, and you want to enter it. Shrug, I would do it (and I'm the type of person who points out when I'm not charged enough at stores and asks for a correction and when someone sent me too many squares in a swap, as soon as I realized that, I got on the computer and emailed her - didn't do anything else first)
