A mind is a terrible thing to waste. Unfortunately, mine is wasting away a bit more every day. Yesterday's Framed Letters pattern was supposed to include the numerals also. When I started designing the letters I told myself not to forget the numbers. I forgot the numbers. Not to worry because today's pattern has the numbers that you can put with the letters.
It is easier to send out a separate pattern with the numbers than to edit the original pattern. The download gets tricky because the original pattern is stored in your computer's cache. It will often just use the cached version and not download the update.
Acrobat Contest Entries: We have a Winner!!!
Saturday was the deadline for entries of the Acrobat Contest. The rules were that I would let my wife pick the top ten then I would randomly draw for those entries. Well, we did not have ten entries so they all went into the hat.
I had a few people say that I did not give enough time for them to complete the contest. I apologize for that. I know that it is difficult to get the family together right now. I'll start another contest soon and give more time.
WINNER S Jeyaraj
These incredibly cute children had three entries but to make it fair I only included them in the hat for one entry. They won. Those smiles are exactly what this contest was all about.
Here is the note I received with the entry. I love the fact that a neighbor made these acrobats for the children. It is so nice to hear that they enjoyed playing with the toy and I hope they will be even more excited to win.
My kids are 2 and 6 and had so much fun with these. They were made for them by our neighbor. My six year old, was so excited to enter the contest.
The prize has been ordered and will be shipped directly to the winner's house.
Here are all the entries. Thanks to everyone who entered. I hope you all enjoyed the time spent with the children.
