WooHoo! I did pretty well!
"Chill" got a 2nd place (I was actually a bit disappointed with this, but didn't see what got 1st for a comparison), "Summer flower box" (the SAL piece) got a 2nd Crocheted bag got a 1st and Reserve champion Crocheted small doily got a 1st I also entered a few flowers from my garden: Peony bouquet got a 2nd Pinks got a 1st Pansies got a 1st I'm glad I wasn't competing against my coworker in the ccs large picture category, who got a first, Champion of the embroidery division *and* Grand Champion of the needlework division with her "Christmas Elegance" by Mirabilia! I knew she would.  I was also really,really happy for her, because this design kept her going through some very tough times with her Hodgkins treatments. She made it for another coworker's wedding gift. Joan

are well-deserved. I haven't seen pinks in years and years - must see if I can find some for me herbaceous borders. You can get seeds for them at Select Seeds - they specialize in heirloom varieties. I started several varieties from seed the last couple of years, and have had a fair amount of success.

Yes, I'm sure I can get seeds (and will have a look for them, now you mention it). It's just that no one seems to grow them in our area lately. Another one I haven't seen in ages is marigolds. And zinnias. And asters. Hmmmm... Fran, I think I can feel a retro-fest coming on! ;-D -- Trish Brown {|:-} Newcastle, NSW, Australia
