Hi Everyone, I have just gotten back from my trip and I thought I would jump right into posting a proper blog for the participaants of the Stitched By Hand Competition.
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.
