I agree, Marcella. If someone teaches a $30 guild local class in Trip Around the World Place mats but can't really stitch anything else, it is ridiculous for her to compete against a real pro like Anita Shackelford.
Yikes! PAT

What is a "professional" Quilter?? or maybe that should be "Who".
Around here it's anyone who makes money off quilting - whether making quilts, teaching classes, machine or hand quilting for customers, designing patterns and so forth.
It's hard for things like the county fair. I have to enter as a professional but just because I teach some techniques (and am good at those) were I to enter a quilt that used different techniques, well, my skill aren't so great. Just look at the art quilt I made! Ok, you can't because I tossed it, but you get the idea. Just because I'm a professional at some areas of quilting doesn't make me a pro in every area of quilting. Hard to divvy that up for show catagories though, so I understand why they lump us all together.
