This is the second of three quilts for you to judge. If you missed the introductory post, read about this little experiment here.
As a judge for a juried quilt exhibition, look at the following full and detailed digital images. Then respond to each of the following nine questions. Or get a score sheet in pdf format for all three quilts here.

I've been viewing your posts for the past couple days, especially comparing the 3 quilts you offer for evaluation. In my opinion, #2 is the most unique and interesting. You achieved hot spots in both the composition and the quilting that I find very appealing and appropriate. Some compositional hot spots are achieved by your choice of color, and some of the quilting hot spots seem to be achieved with color of thread and thread density, especially at the quilt's center. I give this one very high marks!
