    It must not flow since it's creative and pretty and well made... wait, those are good things? They were probably just looking for more traditional quilts. I love it!

    The quilt police were at your county fair! Doesn't flow? It flows like a lovely stream of chocolate syrup. I think it's delicious.

    Be glad it "didn't flow" - Can you imagine the mess if it had? Cute quilt.

    I love your quilt and hope you didn't take the criticism personally. One reader said it may have not fit the criteria for judging; if so, they should have cited the exact reason for it not being excepted. I have found that some, not all, ladies that quilt, especially at some of the LQS, think they are the best, no matter what. I had a LQS salesperson who taught a class make fun of me in the class because I didn't know how to use a rotary cutter. It effects your self-confidence at first but now I just laugh at them to myself because it shows their insecurity, rudeness, and stupidity. If we don't teach those who want to learn, the craft will die...
