2010 Warren County Fair

This year's Best In Show was an outfit for the AG doll (whose name happens to be Emma!) A friend had given me a piece of fabric with large lavender/purple flowers on it and I found a matching solid lavender remnant in my fabric box. I put together this cute dress and jacket and made a slip to go under it and, voila! Another prize winner.

The other Blue ribbon winners were a crocheted gown for a 11" fashion doll, a doily, crocheted baby socks and mittens, a scrapbook of Jimmy and me before kids came along, a green/white crocheted purse, a crocheted hat for Emma (the g'daughter, not the doll), a pair of thread crocheted baby booties, 3 crocheted potholders. The Red ribbon winners were a crocheted horse for Alex and a yellow crocheted "pineapple" bookmark. The White ribbon winners were for a crocheted afghan and 2 green/white crocheted hot mats. The x-stitched covered bridge didn't win anything. Sigh....

Next year, I think I'll try to add some knitted items. Maybe I'll also try to do some more "one-stroke" painting. I won for that several times in the past. The next scrapbook will be the one I'm making now for Alex.
