SO, as some of you know I entered an afghan in the State Fair Fiber Arts competition. I dropped it off before the fair started, and the Fair ended yesterday while I was in Columbus so hubby and i drove down today to pick it up. We weren't able to attend the fair because of other obligations, so I had no idea how I did. The lady took me into the exhibit hall to pick it up and there were two blue ribbons and two plaques! I won first place in my crochet division, best of show in crochet, and best in overall show of the fiber arts division. WOW, I didn't expect all that. The lady said that everyone just went wild over it. Now to figure out what to do for next year, lol.

I would love to frame it with the ribbons, but it's almost the size of a full size bedspread, I don't think it would fit on any wall in my house *sigh* I have to admit I felt it should take first place in the division, and possibly over the entire crochet division, but I didn't expect best of overall show. That felt very good!

Why not take a color picture of it and your awards and frame that. You really need to have it in a place of remembrance.

You make beautiful and exquisite work and if you hadn't won, there'd have been no justice.
