I too quilt for myself and as gifts for family/friends and charities. Everyone I have given a quilt to has loved it. I don't enter shows because I enjoy the hobby and don't need/want anyone judging and potentially ruining my joy of quilting. When I retired from my career, I also retired from all the years of being judged throughout my school and career years.
