State fair entries
I'm thinking about entering a quilt in next year's AZ state fair. Would be my first ever. I've heard that there aren't usually many entries in the hand quilting section. I hand quilt, but I prefer big stitching. Any input on that topic? Do judges snub big stitching? I also am thinking about what would be eye catching. I Will do something original, not a bought pattern or copy someone else. Might have to go this year and see what the entries are like.

If they have a big stitch category then you could enter it there. If however it has to go in the regular hand quilting, those will probably get more points then big stitch.
|
No big stitching category, just hand quilting.
|
Just be. Sure you work in the accepted criteria for big stitch.
|
Wishing you the best of luck.

I worked in our az county fair and we didn't have a separate categorie.
