congrats on your first show.. I have a piece I am thinking about entering into one if I ever get it finished oh wait maybe I should start it first lol All I have done is the rainbow before I had to pack and move. No guilds around here but I am sure I can find something.Hearing about yours gives me a little added courage

Congratulations on finishing your quilt in time for the quilt show. We all procrastinate from time to time, even when we plan not to. I remember one year trying to machine quilt one of my entries into a quilt show and my machine decided to go bonkers on me - tension totally messed up, not stitching right, etc. Well, took her back to where I bought my machine - he told me the machine was fine - just not meant for the amount of quilting that I do. I had told him this when I bought the machine. In the end he gave me what I had paid for my machine and applied it onto a Janome 4000, after some sticker shock. Knock on wood, that machine is still going strong and I love it. I'm sure your quilt got rave reviews from the judges. Having it judged can be a little intimidating, but in the end you get lots of constructive, not destructive comments and your quilting will improve.

Congrats on your first show. I was told by one of my first quilt teachers that shows are good for learning experience. Take the comments as positives. Most quilts shows ask the judges to make the comments in a positive light, so it will help the entrant.

Congratulations on two levels. 1) for entering it in the competition even though you had BIG butterflies, and 2) you received a very good review.
