I would hope you got the message that you will be entering it as Innovative. I enjoyed seeing your quilt and reading all the posts as well. Looks like you learned a lot from your class I have heard good things about quilt university but seeing your finished quilt means maybe I should seriously think of taking some of their classes.

Which ever category it is in, it should claim the top prize. I would call it wonderful! Your use of traditional blocks made into modern (innovative?) design is stunning. From your choice of pattern, color and your talent, you are to be congratulated. I wish I could see it in person, as it is just absolutely beautiful. WOW!!! n

I vote innovative. It's not assembled in a traditional manner.

I have no idea what these terms mean and don't know which one to pick for the application. Which do you think it is?

(Sorry for the inadequate picture. It's the only one that was small enough to post.)

Your brilliant use of fabric tone to create the illusion of cubic is not new. However, you have managed to take triditional patterns to a new level.....3-D. I call that innovative with a BANG! Hope you get winner of show!
