Now, I was going to post all the info regarding the pieces in my blog but I decided to just let you click onto the images which will take you right to Flickr. There you will get all the details and larger photo’s of each of the pieces. Many of the pieces also have posted more than one image of their work.
Each winner has won $40.00 worth of patterns from my store and gets to choose one of my $20.00 prints from one of my two Etsy stores.

I see that my entry somehow didn’t make it into the pool. I must have uploaded it to the wrong group. Oops. I still had fun making it, and my daughter loves wearing it. If you’d like to see it: http://www.flickr.com/photos/94014149@N00/5003196736/
I don’t see my entries…

Wow, thank you. I really didn’t expect to win anything. Thanks Andrea and congratulations to everyone.
Kristin I LOVE your skirt, my jaw dropped when I saw it, spectacular!
Congratulations to all of the winners! They are so cute! I’m not sue what I did wrong, but I didn’t see my entry in the pool, either. I have been meaning to send a picture of it to you for quite a while anyway just because I love the pattern so and have wanted to let you know that. Thanks to Kristin for the idea to paste the link here:

P.S. Andrea, you ARE awesome!
Wow, I would not have wanted to try and judge the various entries, though I really enjoyed seeing what a variety of things folks did with your designs. I wasn’t expecting to win anything, and am delighted that you will be sending up each one of your prints in a small size!
phew, it took me awhile to decide, but will send you an email with my choices. I feel so lucky, thanks so much!!
wow! a prize just for entering? really?! that’s so very kind of you! i hope your trip was a good one, despite the underlying reason for having to go. i’m going to go and think carefully about your prints, i love so many of them! thank you!!
I don’t see my journal listed as “other participants”. Is this an exhaustive list? Or just a sprinkling?
Thanks again — they all look so fun and interesting.
Hi Andrea, Can I get your email address. I did find one but didn’t hear back so I’m not sure if it’s correct.
My entry doesn’t even seem to have made it on your list. But whatever. I didn’t enter for a prize, it was just to support someone trying to bring attention to stitching.
