"Dear Lynne,
Thank you for submitting your work for the "What's My Line" exhibit. We regret that the work was not accepted for inclusion in this particular exhibit. The jurying process was indeed challenging due to the superb quality of the art quilts submitted. The quilts were chosen based on technique, quality of workmanship, relation to theme and visual appeal..."
I admit to being disappointed, but I was never sure either of the quilts I submitted was entirely appropriate to the theme. I submitted The Quick Brown Fox,
and the Black Rules.
The jurying was done from digital photographs, and I know mine aren't great.
I won't know where I went wrong until I see the actual exhibit. My gut instinct is my quilts really didn't take advantage of the theme, i.e., I didn't play a lot with the concept of the "line." That's a fair criticism.
Bright lights, big city. That's the way it goes. No harm, no foul.
