the fair's coming to town

it's fair time again! i'm always excited when this time of year rolls around and for this fun event. this year i'm entering four things...

1. my star sampler quilt
2. the epic tree of life afghan which took forever to make. it just occurred to me that i haven't posted about it on this blog... i'll write more about it when i have fair pictures.
3. a cute knitted doll that i made from a Jean Greenhowe pattern. in fact, he's the guy on the front page of her website.
4. and finally, a samurai cross stitch that i made for my brother.

i'm anxious to see how they do against all the other awesome craftspeople. there were some amazing projects being submitted whilst i was there. one lady had a beautiful crocheted blanket. note to self: learn to crochet!
