Up Island Eggs
Second Day at the Fair
posted Friday, 18 August 2006
Tom taught 116 kids of all ages to weave today (for a total of 220). He is getting hoarse but holding up well. Year before last Tom taught 400 kids, so I expect we may be a bit under that this year. Depends on when the rain starts on Sunday.
The sheep afghan (with borders of chickens and eggs and with the island in the center) got a second ribbon - not sure when that happened, I guess it was after the regular judging. Even though it took second in the afghan category, it got a special award for "the most creative fiber-art/needlecraft entry in the Department". I'm thrilled and have had lots of compliments on the afghan.
