<p>In this episode Kathie Beltz joins us to talk about all things to do with judging quilts for quilt shows. She covers the things to pay attention to if you hope to be considered for a prize, and I got to ask about criteria for bindings, which is something I’ve had notes on when I’ve entered competitions!</p><p>One of the things she points out is that, while design definitely matters, many of the criteria included in quilt judging have to do with making a quilt that will last. The critiques you might get about your stitches are not just the judges being picky!</p><p>Show Notes</p><p>Website - <a target="_blank" href="https://kathiebeltz.com/">https://kathiebeltz.com/</a></p><p>Instagram - <a target="_blank" href="https://www.instagram.com/kathiebeltz/">https://www.instagram.com/kathiebeltz/</a></p><p>QuiltCon - <a target="_blank" href="https://www.quiltcon.com/home">https://www.quiltcon.com/home</a></p><p>MQX - <a target="_blank" href="https://www.instagram.com/mqxquiltshow/">https://www.instagram.com/mqxquiltshow/</a></p><p>Vermont Quilt Festival - <a target="_blank" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vermont_Quilt_Festival">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vermont_Quilt_Festival</a></p><p>Kathie’s classes and lectures - <a target="_blank" href="https://kathiebeltz.com/classes/">https://kathiebeltz.com/classes/</a></p><p>National Association of Certified Quilt Judges - <a target="_blank" href="https://www.nacqj.com/">https://www.nacqj.com/</a></p><p>Simi Valley Quilt Guild - <a target="_blank" href="https://simivalleyquiltguild.com/">https://simivalleyquiltguild.com/</a></p><p>BERNINA 150- <a target="_blank" href="https://sewing.patternreview.com/SewingMachine/98">https://sewing.patternreview.com/SewingMachine/98</a></p><p><p>How to Own a Revolutionary Craft Biz is a hand-made - never AI, reader-supported publication.
