The Ventura Fair!


This past weekend I sent to the fair! As usual, I spent four hours weaving at the Guild fair show. It is always fun meeting people and letting them know that people still weave. Anyway,I turned in three things and received two first prizes and one second price. It was pretty good to do that well.
The three things I submitted were one of the fire pieces, one of the jean's bags, and my recent tallis made of think silk.
Linda came with me. We had lunch there at the fair. After I had spent the afternoon weaving and talking to people, we went and played bingo. It was fun. I think we may have gotten more money from playing bingo than I did getting my 1st place awards.
