I'd like to learn more about this competition! I've entered the State Fair here
in Texas----can you believe a piece that was gorgeous and done on belfast linen
lost out to a piece on aida----I'm not knocking people who stitch on aida---but
doing a piece on linen takes a lot more effort----I too would like to compete
where the judges know what they are to look for and will tell you how to
improve...anyone know how to find out about this?
