Blue Ribbon Fair
 

This year is the first year I have ever entered any items in the county fair. I entered in several different categories (some was crocheting and embroidery). Last night I went to the fair to see how I made out.
I ended up with 5 blue ribbons. The two on my quilt entries were

So happy and grateful for their decision.

I second that!

When I went to pick up my items at the fair, I said to the staff, "Do you need the number of the item that did not get a ribbon?" She asked which one so I showed it to her


[ATTACH=CONFIG]581149[/ATTACH]She said to me, "Oh honey, that one won a blue ribbon". I told her that I did not see a ribbon and she checked her records and sure enough it did. So, I received 6 blue ribbons.

Congratulations! Pretty quilts! I especially like the RWB. These days with all the folks disrespecting the flag, it's so nice to see a tribute to Old Glory. I'd like to see the other items that you won with. I know they are very nice too.

Thank you so much for the kind comments. I thought because they weren't all quilting I would not show the pictures but as you have asked for me to, here goes:

That's it. Thanks for looking

Well deserved recognition for your lovely work.

I love all your items. I like to crochet, but haven't done any in years. Mostly due to small dogs that thought thread moving around must be for them. I'm going to have to pull out some of my patterns and go at it again. You have inspired me.

I am so glad to hear that you are going to start crocheting again. It is so relaxing. We have small dogs but they know not to mess with "Mamas Stuff. GOD Bless

great job on both of them

Beautiful quilts.
