I had gone over and over this top before deciding that I was ready to send it off for quilting and I never realized that I hadn't trimmed the dark border fabric. Now it shows underneath the lighter fabric.
I believe that may be totally unacceptable and maybe I should forget about entering this quilt in any shows.
Please... honest opinions? Is that a show stopper? Should I just be happy with the wonderful quilt it is and forget about showing it?
Go ahead and enter it in a show , county , state, etc. you might win I could not see anything wrong with the quilt myself. It is beautiful and the quilting is super. also it has beautiful colors. and your mistake may not be noticed, and if it is tell them that is the way you planed it.
