Fair Results and a Boston Update

I hope all is well with everyone! Have you had time to stitch?? I have been able to and it so good after a hard day.

On Sunday I picked up my pieces from the Porter County Fair. Here are my results:



Wohoo I got a first!!


And a second!!



And a third.
I was pleased with the comments and besides the ribbions I came away with a little statsh money!! I have saved the list of catagories for entries so I can plan on more entries for next year.

This week I have been stitching on the boston:


I am thinking that tomorrow night I will be on the last page! I am going to put this in my rotation for two weeks in hopes to get it and the brown one done by Christmas.

I think that is all for now.
Until next time,
May you be blessed with stitches,
Karol
