Judging

SELC quilting ribbons
While judging quilts acknowledges accomplishments and encourages quilters, it also helps move the art of quilting forward.  I find judging quilt shows to be a rewarding way to promote quilting and help quilters along their journey.  I appreciate judges' comments,  the "pat on the back" for techniques done well, and the considerate mention of an area requiring improvement. 

Shortly after I starting quilting, I was asked to help develop a local quilt show. During that show, I was lucky enough to scribe for a judge.  Not only did I learn a lot from the experience, but I began to wonder about the process and what makes a quilt a "winner."  Winning quilts not only have wonderful workmanship but best utilize design principles to realize their design.   

I have judged shows independently and as a member of a team.  I am a member of the National  Association Certified Quilt Judges (NACQJ).

I would love to help your guild or group with judging a show, contest or challenge! Please contact me for availability.
