We have the voting results,
and the tallying process was very interesting.
But first . . . I would like to tell you . .
IMPRESSIVE display participants!
•
We are blown away by the level of creativity and skill shown in these wonderful pincushion projects and accessories. You all sewed your hearts out it appears and I am sincerely moved to see your works.
Over the years I have heard from some of you regarding how my designs have touched you in some way and it is my favorite part of creating fabric. Connecting with like-minded kindreds is such a treat for me. And seeing the Handmaids® images come to life this way, is icing on the cake! I am so grateful to each of you for taking the time to join us in this latest challenge.
Thank you.

Your first pick was quite the popular choice by far. The majority of the voting however, was close. They were ALL so WONDERFUL. I imagine we all found this a difficult task, but fun, so very fun.
Congrats to everyone!
