Eventually you will be a winner but I admit it's kind of hard because of knitters like SK out there. Her work is fantastic.<BR/>Ever think of cutting up your first try to make flowers etc. to embellish your bags?<BR/>I just finished a little white Christmas party bag with a big red glass button on the front and a red lining with little gold stars on it. It was my own design and I was thrilled with it but I can't write a pattern for the life of me.<BR/>Part of the reason I only make bags and socks is because I have a lot of trouble reading the intricate patterns and understanding them. I need to visualize someone doing these techniques rather than look at a picture.<BR/>I'm anxious to see the entrants for this contest. Should be good.<BR/>BTW I have given up on your email addy...so look for something from me via snail mail.<BR/>Take care.....Ev<BR/>ps: What is the purpose of having us write those letters before we send our posts?

That really stinks, but I know what you mean-sometimes it gets a little dicey.<BR/><BR/>I can't show any pictures until the finalists are contacted. If I make the finals, I will mail it to Ann for judging. SO....if I post a picture of it, that means I didn't get to the finals, and THAT'S a bad thing.junior_goddesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00014909174642487572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29470853.post-1161569338568157062006-10-22T21:08:00.000-05:002006-10-22T21:08:00.000-05:00yay bets! can you show a pic after you submit it? ...yay bets! can you show a pic after you submit it? I had a felting disaster this weekend too and am still wondering how to best salvage anything from it. worst luck there are beautiful glass beads knitted in...unfortunately some felted to the inside and some to the outside (next time run a wire or non felting yarn through them to hold them to the outside) and the flap over part came out all wonky. can't wait to see yours.LisaW.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00127886567995750258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29470853.post-1161560447971189932006-10-22T18:40:00.000-05:002006-10-22T18:40:00.000-05:00Oh I can relate, I wanted to do this contest too,...Oh I can relate, I wanted to do this contest too, I have a plan, I have the yarn but I knit everything but. One reason is mine would not be felted. I live in an apartment with no washer, so no way to felt anything. The commercial washers at the laundromat will not suffice, you can't play with cycles like you can at home. Good luck Bets, I admire your perserverance!!Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07690015792194520754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29470853.post-1161532679096417182006-10-22T10:57:00.000-05:002006-10-22T10:57:00.000-05:00Good luck with it!I was all gung-ho about this con...Good luck with it!<BR/><BR/>I was all gung-ho about this contest and even started something (it sounded promising in my head). It's about half-knit. Half-wit? Honestly can't say if it will make it into the contest since I have one other much bigger deadline to meet in the same time frame, and...I keep knitting other things. Avoidance?<BR/><BR/>Every time I walk past it in my head I think, I would carry that... :)<BR/><BR/>Can't wait to see yours and hoping to see the pillowcase too. ;)jaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04503525097002935287noreply@blogger.com
