Thanks to everyone who responded to my question about whether someone could 
take an entry to the competition.  I wasn't trying to be difficult, but really 
didn't know the logistics of staging such an event!!  In my ignorance, I 
imagined the judges doing their job during the convention, not beforehand, and 
I also thought that photographs were taken then as well.  So obviously, those 
assumptions are wrong - for very good reasons.

Thanks again!

Clay

I have to agree with Barbara, regarding the judging of lace from a
photograph.  You simply cannot see from a photograph, how lace is
mounted, especially if framed (eg, is it stitched or glued or just laid
in, whatever), and some of the finer points of the lace regarding it's
construction, finishing, etc at lost in a photograph.  You can only see
that under magnification of the piece itself.

Cheers,
