Here's a picture of the wonderful basket of Kreinik silks, metallics and kits I won, along with the cool ribbon!

Here is a close-up of the nametag. The title of my nametag was "CATS Thoughts," and it was inspired by "Random Thoughts" by The Drawn Thread. It is a little sampler of some things you might experience while at CATS. It was stitched with Kreinik Soie d'Alger (required by contest rules), Soie Cristale, DMC Flower Thread, DMC Rayon, DMC floss, Kreinik metallics, and a few other bits of things I threw in. The cat in the upper right-hand corner is my adaptation of "Merry Christmas Cat" by Teresa Wentzler, and is owned and copyrighted by: Leisure Arts, Inc. P.O. Box 55595, Little Rock, AR 72215.
