Here is the answer to your pm. Your quilt turned out wonderful. I have judge many quilts and this certainly would get a ribbon from me. Stitching is great, corners are square, and sides are straight. Judges look for that. Very creative and original is another thing they look for. Now the only thing I and the judges would probably comment on is the white border. They would have probably of like to see last border to be black. That would have really pop you quilt. Now don't get me wrong it is an awesome quilt. Executed wonderfully. Excellently done, detail outstanding with the blossoms popping out. so original. Hope it was all right to give you my opinion on border and please don't be upset with me. I am not dissing your quilt just letting you know what judges look for in entries. Great job. I can't wait to see the next one. Keep up the great work. When I'm in Phoenix visiting my son we should meet up.
