We seem to have several judges on the list - I wonder, what would be your thoughts if you were faced with: 1. a superb original artistic vision and fantastic original design, in either a simple lace well made, or a difficult lace not expertly made or 2. A tour de force of technical skill in making a pattern that is available to anybody who has bought the book. Which would you choose? The one that is hand mounted? :-) Seriously, these are the most difficult things to judge. Do you reward someone who tries something difficult and does not have a perfect result or someone who does something perfect that is not that much of a challenge? Do you reward creativity and individuality? How much? Actually, the point system by Diana Stevens which I tend to rely on, has points awarded for complexity and for Wow factor, also Design Compatibility.
