Different shows have different rules. Rather than not follow the rules of this show, why not try to find a show you can enter? While many have date rules, many do not.

That's beside the point. The real question is would you cheat to enter? :shock:

I dont think it would be fair to those who follow the rules.

How would they know? Well, since fabrics are very dated that would be their first clue...if you want to enter your 2007 quilt, find a quilt contest that will accept it without the date mattering, there are lots of contests to try...without cheating

I think you answered your own question.
I wouldn't do it.

***Just my 2 cents..........I just don't understand why people (not pointing fingers at anyone) think that rules only apply to some and not to others.....
