nc state fair

 Have any of y'all ever put any items in for judging at the NC State Fair?

 I love to go look at it all and I see stuff that I feel like I could make.   Anyone want to join me in a goal to make something for the State Fair?   I am pretty sure that as a crochet noob, I'm not going to be winning any prizes.  That being said, it will definitely inspire me to pick out a more challenging project and then really work hard at completing it.  

 The new rules/reqs for 2009 have not been put up yet, but I took a peek at the deadline for 2008 and it looks like it was in September so that gives us a little bit of time to do it.   Personally, I'm not expecting to win, but I think it might be fun to say that I entered into a competition.  

 

Last years guidelines

 

Any one else want to give it a shot?   :)

 

And Squirrelling...Think that I should make this as well and submit it in addition to my real project?? :D

 Best hat EVER!

I offered to put my sausage in once but they didn't have a big enough table.

Aces, that isn't what they told me! ;)

LOL @ Aces. Didn't come in extra small? ;D

Just messn

Sounds like fun! I've submitted something for three out of the past four years. Usually it's for the Craft competition; since there are so MANY categories there's a better chance of winning there than in the Art competition. It's really easy to enter, and they've always taken good care of anything I've submitted.

Carolina, you are about to be my State Fair mentor! :)

I'm thinking of making a afghan (that will live with me) or maybe a baby blanket for my future niece/nephew. I'm going to have to look for something really fun to make.

Just the pickle contest, but I ain't win nothin yet.

I have two words: Fried snickers. I know that's not really anything to judge but ahhh they are sooooooooooooo gooood!!!!!!!!!!!

My dearest friend has won many blue ribbons at the state fair for her baked goods. If she has any details regarding the 2009 competiton, I will post...

Rose, I need friends who win awards baking! :D Yum!!
