It is really risky just getting up the nerve to ENTER a quilt, let alone reading what the judges said, and THEN sharing it in a public forum. However, it is a great learning experience for all of us. I haven't entered a judged show for YEARS, not sure I ever will again, even though my quilts did very very well (but it was a small town)! I think just getting juried in to a show of this calibre is a huge accomplishment; I love that group one, wow! My favourite, though, is Gail's Heart Attack.Sandra Walkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17737049269550479188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8316079433124165960.post-68689049072059350402015-06-15T15:10:46.174-06:002015-06-15T15:10:46.174-06:00Nice entries.

I love XLV - the colours working well with gray is a given, so perhaps comment on the construction and overall balance of design would have been more useful?Eleanorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04255138865146146980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8316079433124165960.post-34297819430295767392015-06-14T09:25:11.532-06:002015-06-14T09:25:11.532-06:00I really enjoyed seeing your quilts at the show, p...I really enjoyed seeing your quilts at the show, particularly for a chance to see XLV up close and in person. Thanks for sharing the judges comments. Although all the winning quilts were wonderful, it felt wrong that so few of the fantastic modern quilts had ribbons. sophiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13408822963659450038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8316079433124165960.post-89565933310191034892015-06-13T04:46:37.703-06:002015-06-13T04:46:37.703-06:00I love your quilts, especially Heart Attack, but y...I love your quilts, especially Heart Attack, but your son's is wonderful.

Also her comments make her sound like a more traditional quilter--there isn't balance in the first and colors look nice with grey--two very "modern" things that are encouraged.Reneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11843675387693755387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8316079433124165960.post-76795134514394759572015-06-11T08:31:50.783-06:002015-06-11T08:31:50.783-06:00You did well with your entries!
