    I a considering entering this in our County Fair. What do you think???

    It is by far not perfect -- but I love the effect the lizard material gives me when made into a kaleidoscope circle and then quilted to make them POP!

    I even made a sleeve for the back so that it will hang better than in this photo.

    I would enter it! It will be a Judge's Favorite if nothing else. What a neat design and nice work on piecing the critters together.

    If you don't support your local county fair, who will? Ours this year had the entries moved from the big building to the small building so they could sell more vendor space.

    Don't let that happen to your County Fair - enter!
