HAZAH! So for the first time ever, I decided to enter something I made in a fair. Today and yesterday, Lewistown hosted the Montana Winter Fair. I entered Matilda's blessing dress into the Fiber Arts competition. I also had a little booth of things for sale. I made a few sales and special orders. Best of all, I won "Best in Show" for the dress, and received as my prize an AWESOME wool (local sheep) rug that is crocheted and felted. All of the spectators were also invited to vote for their favorite entry for the "People Choice Award" which I was also very fortunate to receive! The prize was an adorable basket with several skeins of wool yarn, and lots of little sheep-themed goodies. I had a wonderful time and feel more "Montanan" than ever! :)
