[DEAR] JANE STICKLE CYBER BLOCK PARTY - Jan 2010 thru May/Jun 2011

I bought a bolt of muslin and had about three yards left. I used it for all my background, sashings, scallops and backing. I did that so the die lot would be the same. It was natural color. I also used long strips to make my scallops so they weren't pieced. Looking foreward to seeing your progress! Pictures are always welcome!!!

I lucked out and I found another coupon for 40% off at Joann's. I ordered 8 more yards of the Kona cotton in buttercup. That will give me a total of 15 yards so unless I waste a lot of material I should be all set.

I put my Jane in the craft section of a small Agricultural Show today, and won First Prize! I am chuffed to bits - no ribbon, but I have a small certificate and won €40
I have it entered in a much larger Agricultural Show in two weeks time, and I've never been to it, so I have no idea what the 'competition' might be like - first prize in that one is a Brother NV10A - I don't really need another sewing machine, but I am sure my DD and granddaughters might like it, if I am lucky enough to win. If not, second prize is €50, third is €30, and fourth is €20. Who knows, I might be lucky again.

Yesterday was the 62nd annual show, and was opened by the Prime Minister (he has an Irish title, but I can't spell it, I really must learn!).
