Default I made a( please do not touch the quilts block).

On the main I ask for help trying to make a 12 inch block about this and got a suggestion from Faintly Artistic. Here it is and I thank her for this idea.[ATTACH=CONFIG]572198[/ATTACH]

That is great!! Perfect. Unfortunately no matter how many signs are up at shows, some people still persist in handling the quilts. It's infuriating. No respect, whatsoever.

One quilt show I like gives out thin disposable plastic gloves so you can touch if you want to. I think that's smart.

Nice sign, Big, flashy, attention getting, and not nasty. Just love it!

But I really don't know why people touch quilts in a quilt show, and what there is to touch.....unless you are trying to lift it to peek at the back. And then pinning back a corner so you can see the back might help.

I mean it is all cotton, we all know what that feel like.....maybe you gals can give me some insight here as to what people are trying to accomplish by touching a quilt in a quilt show. even my 5 yr old DGD knows to hold her hands together behind her back....and if she gets too excited about a quilt I put a camera in her hand to keep them busy.

Good grief, what's up with people?

The message is perfectly clear with this sign. The ric-rack is a great idea. I am off to a show today and will think of you and your sign.
