When you take a quilt.... part 2

Now the next question:
Do you feel that the quality and workmanship of your quilts are as
good as those in your LQS (or your quilt teacher's) yet?

Workmanship? Very nearly.

Design quality? No, though I can see improvement.

Honestly, I don't care. I know I could do better if I fussed more. But
I'm doing it for the joy of doing it, and to hell with anyone's
judgement of it, except my own. The only time I care what anyone else
thinks is if it is for someone else. Then I'll fuss more, and sacrifice
my own taste for their preferences (but only as far as I can stand it).

If the project is up on the wall I will compare, but I can see how much I
have progressed. I must have something to aspire to. I strive to perfect
the technique not necessarily have a perfect quilt.

No.
I did see a few entries by some ten year-olds at the New Orleans show that
I could whip.

Never gave it a thought, Ron!
Honestly, quilts are like comparing apples and oranges. One of the most
interesting things *is* this difference. I'm sure the LQS find it
fascinating to see how different each person's quilts are, even if a
similar pattern was used. Just as an example: look how different the
various YBR pattern quilts, which our friends here have shown us, are.
Quilts are all so different, and the demands of each are so different.
I think they can only be judged like they do in dog shows - look at the
quilt and see how it compares with the 'standard' of the techniques it
uses.
That being said: I could never do that, and I just look at the overall
beauty.
I'm sure the LQS do that too. They might have someone checking behind a
mirror or from a CCTV camera just to make sure you have got all your
points matching etc, but I seriously doubt it g

No, but I'm working on it! Haven't had much time recently!

I think that in the color and design arena - I can easily compete with my
teachers. In hand quilting - I'm about an average 7 per inch - but I'm
consistent. In finishing, i.e. binding - I stink.

Remember, once you get over the hill,
you'll begin to pick up speed.

Louisiana, like the other 49 States, has strict laws against this
violence behavior. As it well should! So leave those kidlets
alone, regardless of how they quilt.

Don't do it Cynthia!! I think this is a cheap ploy to get free
quilts!
