Showing your work - Results
Well everyone - I did it - I not only got the courage to enter a bobbin in the local show but also entered 6 of my husbands turned pens.
The judging was yesterday but the pavilion is not open to the public until this afternoon but
I got a peak and ...... are you sitting down?
We won first and third in the class - Constructed Hardwood Article!!!
What a buzz!Jenny Brandis, Kununurra, West Australia

Ditto on the 'grats. You'll have to convince the other half to build a cabinet to hold next years' trophies...

The pics
These are the photos taken at the show today - I get to pick the items up tomorrow and will do better photos for the website. The first is the pens and bobbin turning by husband (3rd place) & I (1st place), the second is the 2nd place piece.
BTW for those of you who have been watching my progress on the site - the URL is http://www.brandis.com.au/craft/lace.htmlJenny Brandis, Kununurra, West Australia

After seeing this maybe we should have a forum where awards can be shown by forum members, awards etcNot as one upmanship but as appreciation and respect for those who are members of this forum and in a way our extended family to show their achievements .
Well done Jenny and though you couldn't make them with a plane I still appaluad your efforts and well deserved awards
The trouble with life is there's no background music.
