I have no clue as to exactly what the judges are referencing.... But I think your quilt is just beautiful. I really love all of it , the colors, inculding the color placement, and the pattern. Your workmanship appears to be spot on !

Great quilt. I can see this as a way of using my stash. What is the pattern name Please!!!
|
Wow! That certainly looks straight. Judges must use magnifying glasses. Have you been able to speak to a judge? Having one point out the problem would certainly make it easier for you to understand. Is there a local person who has served as a judge for quilt shows who could look at you quilt?

I think that quilt is totally AWSOME, I think we the board have out-voted the judge :D

Perfect example of why not to enter quilts for judgement (Not judging). Your quilt is beautiful! I really enjoy quilting and don't need someone "picking lint" about my methods - therefore do not enter into any kind of show or contest.
Please don't let this spoil your satisfaction with your quilt - it is stunning! Beautiful quilt BTW, and I don't see anything wrong with it. |
It surely looks straight to me! Congrats for having it on display.

It appears that several have answered your question, especially the poster who had taken the NQA Judging class.
We don't know what the competition was in the show where you entered the quilt and the photograph is certainly not the best way to see what the comment referred tol. But the answer was in several of the posts. It is difficult judging to start with and sometime just a small thing like "straight lines" is the difference from one quilt getting the ribbon over another - or even mitred corners. But one final comment. After reading all the comments I tend to resent it when a judge is referred to as an "eliete snob". |

Maybe the show should be more careful in how they hang the quilt. I think it is beautiful. Sounds like the judges were elitist snobs. I have been involved in several shows and I have never heard of a judge giving negative comments.
