We will go down to see the show this week and I will let you know who the winners were with web or blog sites if available! I'm honored to have been juried in and your positive uplifting comments are ribbons to me!

When I was looking at the list of blogs I follow, this thumbnail caught my attention and held it riveted. Had to investigate further. This is strikingly wonderful. Congratulations on getting accepted into the show; I know it is a winner. What happened last night? Was it named one?<br />If it wasn't, there had to be some super highly outstanding pieces submitted. <br />When I look at this, I just want to touch and feel the material(s). They are so soft, velvety looking. You're probably saying, "Hands off, lady.
