The pressure is off -- my perfect PIQF record has been broken. I got my first rejection from PIQF this year. The good news is that my quilt can stay in my entry hall in October. :)
I did a quilt with another quilter (Sue Sprague) that was accepted. She pieced it, I quilted it, and she used my stash of crystals to embellish it. I don't have a picture (or at least, I won't until PIQF), but DH tells her every time he sees her how much he'll enjoy it when she gives it to him. It's good to have dreams!
