Busy with Fair

This month seems to be consumed by fair time. First we attended the Custer County Fair in Hermosa and this week it's the Central States Fair in Rapid City. I took several quilts to both fairs. There's a big difference in the quantity and types of quilts shown at the smaller versus larger fair.
At the Custer County Fair I received a 1st on my wolf

A first on Swoon and a second on Crown Royal as well as a first on my mystery quilt.

My friend Tammy got a first on her Christmas Celebration Table Topper, her first entry in the fair.

This week I haven't done much sewing at all. I did get this baby quilt sample done for the store.

I also made this bag for a sample for a class I hope to teach in the spring.

Sunday night Paul and I had a date night and went to Billy Currington at the fair. He was so good and we had awesome seats.

Yesterday I was super excited to receive my passport in the mail! Now I'm anticipating where we'll be going on our cruise with my husband's company.

Congrats! That is a bit of a difference of judging between the two fairs. I have a feeling you will be cruising somewhere warm! We are heading to the Bahamas in January. I can't wait.
