Congratulations...We are all awesome, aren't we! Congratulations!<br /><br />I figure that if I'm selected as one of the final 8, that will be great; and if I'm not, I get my quilt back and that'll be great too. I can't lose!<br /><br />All the best to you.Ronahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15537721460020471673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2996923364541770935.post-70815497425987787732011-08-25T20:29:39.340-04:002011-08-25T20:29:39.340-04:00p.s. it's gorgeous and really unique! xxo, maa...p.s. it's gorgeous and really unique! xxo, maagiaraxeredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08061831332888448321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2996923364541770935.post-40958607262755121022011-08-25T20:28:49.442-04:002011-08-25T20:28:49.442-04:00congratulations!! on making it into the finals AND...congratulations!! on making it into the finals AND on putting yourself out there.araxeredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08061831332888448321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2996923364541770935.post-62452238923315864292011-08-23T20:59:15.412-04:002011-08-23T20:59:15.412-04:00I, too, hesitated mightily before entering - I hav...I, too, hesitated mightily before entering - I have been quilting less than 2 years and really have no art background or training. The whole judging thing is intimidating. You describe it well!<br /><br />Love your entry - well thought out and executed. Good luck in the next phase of this challenge!Monihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09455067186211515342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2996923364541770935.post-28354216406371584802011-08-23T14:48:29.363-04:002011-08-23T14:48:29.363-04:00Kristen, thanks for your blog about not being good...Kristen, thanks for your blog about not being good enough - I have that big self-doubt on my shoulder too. BUT, with quilting, and especially my art quilting, it gives me the chance to play and make for me - making for someone else again makes me nervous and doubt myself. I do enter in competitions with quilts, because it's my learning time and I can't resist the c-word (challenge, which = learning). <br />Congratulations on getting your piece accepted - I love the idea behind it and I think it should get into the top 8 too!<br />Well done!Erilynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14115009882771705164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2996923364541770935.post-71214777839966658772011-08-23T03:34:38.113-04:002011-08-23T03:34:38.113-04:00Hi Kristin

In the end making a quilt because you want to is what it is all about. That is why I don't quilt for a living.<br /><br />Good luck with the next stage.Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16071169702272418462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2996923364541770935.post-5782258193429747822011-08-22T20:42:58.516-04:002011-08-22T20:42:58.516-04:00You read my mind!

Maybe not THE best, but my best.<br /><br />Of course, the minute I looked at all the other finalists, I thought - well, that's it. All the other ones are so much better than mine.<br /><br />Our Inner Negative Critics are just too finely tuned to our weaknesses, don't you think?<br /><br />I think your entry is very thoughtful and unique. I love the detail. It's in my top 8 choices :)<br /><br />All the best to you - ChrisChrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18219391418382088135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2996923364541770935.post-1490189169797189362011-08-22T12:25:36.958-04:002011-08-22T12:25:36.958-04:00Yippie.... now these judges know a great quilt whe...Yippie.... now these judges know a great quilt when they see it. Grinning from ear to ear for you. Now onto the next judges table. You sound like you are in a great place and I think you have already won.....more than a contest.<br /><br />KnitalittleAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
