Grandmaquilts is my favorite Aunt which is why she said my talent is inherited. Thank you, I'm glad you liked it! I just thought it was a fun quilt, cute for a little girl.

as i read through this topic i was surpised to see that "hiding" entries is such a widespread practice. it seems like such an odd choice. :?

since space could be a legitimate concern, i wonder that none of them have ever thought to take an attractive photograph of each quilt. those that can't be hung in full view could be accompanied by that photograph.

not a perfect solution but much better than the alternatives i've read about here.

Here are a couple of photos of the "Needlework" display at our County Fair which ends today. I think they do a great job of displaying as many things as they can.

That's great, you can view the crafts easily, they have displayed the quilts that way in previous years at our fair. I'm not sure why they chose to change it so much, and if it was to try to save space then they could have limited the entries instead. Live & Learn

Your quilt is gorgeous! It is a shame they can't come up with some kind of solution to hang all the quilts for display. Folded up doesn't do it justice.

What a strange way to display quilts! Congrats on yours.
