Quilt judging factors
A current thread about quality of current manufactured fabric has made me wonder about judging criteria. When quilts are judged is the quality of the fabric considered as a factor toward an award winning quilt? If everything else were totally equal, i.e., the construction details , the design and color details, quilting pattern, etc., but one quilt's fabric included pieces with a very loose weave, fabric most considered to be "cheap fabric", would that fabric affect the awarding of a prize?
