I'm still here.....

I haven't posted in a while I know, but my elderly mom is having health issues and I don't have as much time....so my posts will be limited.  But I still look at all your great posts!

A few more fair projects

Here are a few more projects for the fair. My little elephant didn't win anything and I was really tickled with how he turned out. I purchased the paper mache trunk at the craft store and covered it inside and out with scrapbook paper and mod podge and entered it in the decoupage fair category...the judges passed it by! I love that scrapbook paper design. The tiny crochet teddy won a first place and judges choice. I didn't finish the miniature Mickey hat that goes with the Minnie hat....I am going to string them together as a Christmas ornament.

Entries in the fair

I haven't posted in a while because I've been working on multiple projects to enter in the fair. Here's a couple....the Barbie doll granny square afghan won a 1st place blue ribbon, but my little bunny didn't win anything.  And my crochet doily won a 1st place blue ribbon also!

Andy Williams

So sad, Andy Williams passed away. I love his voice and saw his show many years ago...it was fantastic.
