Late summer and early fall is the time for the county and state fairs, with all their exhibits, including needlework. I've collected all the photos folks have posted of their exhibited pieces. Congratulations to all and thanks for showing off how lovely your needlepoint can be.
Jenny's done some award winning Indiana-themed pieces for their state fair.
The judges couldn't find an errors in Mara's counted piece!
This looks rather plain in the photo, but trust me--Jane Zimmerman pieces are stunning in person!
Willie got a second place ribbon for her four seasonal cat designs.
Jeanne got two blue ribbons but only one was for needlepoint.
Susan got a blue ribbon for her Pippin collage.
Susan managed two blue ribbons at the Oregon state fair.
