The charm of a handmade item is precisely that it was made by hand and seeing the structure of the thing, how it was created, is part of that charm in my opinion. Anyway a quilt cannot really be 'judged'. It's a highly personal and individualistic piece of art. The important thing is what it signfies to the maker and to their loved ones. Anna's quilts will be enjoyed and treasured by generations of family and friends. Angela.

I love your quilts and I'd love to see more photos that show the whole thing, but that's a hard photograph to set up.<br /><br />I edited a book about quilts and then and there, I realized I would probably never make a quilt that would win a prize.

It was quite stressful. I can't even imagine how much more stressful for my mother and father, who at one time were taking goats and chickens for seven children down to the fair at once. It's a lot of work. <br />Your quilts are amazing. Who cares what the county judges think?Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05117120475033380036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16182378.post-34667122120038383642016-09-17T14:29:29.788-05:002016-09-17T14:29:29.788-05:00Beautiful coloring!

In the comment section the judge gently chided <br />her for using buttons that didn't Match the fabric.Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05406378232568485111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16182378.post-60297648690764851442016-09-17T08:09:52.783-05:002016-09-17T08:09:52.783-05:00Looks like fun.
