I entered 3 pieces in our county fair last week and I just have to
brag, so please bear with me! :) I entered a knitted reversible baby
blanket and got 2nd place, a towel with violets on it that I made for a
benefit auction (I had to borrow it back from the person who "won" it)
and took a first with that, and the third piece is a switchplate cover
with pansies and butterflies and got a first with that *and* a reserve
champion!!!
DD (who is now old enough to compete against me) got a 2nd place (after
my 1st!) with a kit she stitched and gave to me last Christmas. It was
the only piece she finished this past year.
You can see pics of all except the blanket (haven't gotten a pic of
that, yet) on my webshots album ( http://tinyurl.com/hhokr ). They're
all at the end of the list.
Who else is entering things in upcoming fairs? Seems like our fair is
the earliest out of all of us on rctn, since I was the first to post
last year, too.

I was going to but never got the sixth ornament in the set finished. My
fair doesn't have a category for latch hook projects so I can't enter
those. Don't know that I'd want to anyway.

I thought about entering ours, but can't find the form! The deadline
is next week - a neighbor is entering knitting - maybe she knows where
it is. . .

I don't know about where you live, but they have the rule books at the
different fabric and craft stores around town. Maybe you could check
there? Also, at our fair we fill out the form when we submit our
entries, they're not available beforehand.
