Name Badge Winners/We had a tie! - AnnaMarie Ludow, Idaho Falls, ID & Valerie
Vejrostek, Longmont, CO

Muder Mystery Banquet DMC Treasure Chest Winner:

Jan:

The name badge contest was a special treat to me as one of the winners is
Valerie (a very long time CompuServe friend) and the other Anna Marie a new
friend and student who added to her name badge a design she learned in
class.

Everyone at CATS is a winner in some way, but our showcase winners are
special and the prizes donated by the sponsors are phenomenal.

Hi Jan,   I loved that I had met some of the winners..........cool!  Everyone
had such a great time!  
   Another winner at these events is the Big Brother/Big Sister organization...
 what a teriffic charity to donate to.   The money earned at the PJ party
created an uproar of laughter.   no, I won't squeal -- ha..ha..
and tell you about it.  You'll have to come to the next one to find out.  We
had fun all for the benefit of this great organization.
Thanks,
Annmarie Allaire

It was great meeting all of you . I must say , the teachers are just great fun,

I'm the Peoples Choice winner,and had to put my floss in plastic bags, cause
i'm still drooling.What a great price.I recoment to all stitchers to enter
there pieces, what have you to loose, you can only gain.
Like i said Bonnie(friend)and i had a ball.Poor thing is still trying to
explain to DH how much she spent.She did try to buy all of the Dimples
patterns.I do think she has all now, she went back 3 more times after Linn
Skinner had to leave
I really am looking forward to next year

Hi Linn and AnnMarie!

I am so glad you two made it home safe and sound, from the Denver show.  Didn't
we have fun???  Linn...I can understand why the name bage winners were so
special to you and I agree the items submitted by show sponsors, really are
super nice.  Even though, AnnMarie lost her voice, she didn't lose her spirit.
If you got to go to the PJ party, you can vouch for that.  As always......it
was so good to see you and everyone else, there.   Jan  :-)

Hi Ellie!

Congratulations again! on being "People's Choice" winner.  I know what you mean
about letting the pocket book and credit card recover.  I'm glad you and Bonnie
had a great time.  I agree....the teachers are neat, fun ladies to be around.
Didn't you enjoy getting acquainted with Professor Fizzby?  I think he is a
really neat and talented person, too.  I will look forward to next year, just
as you are.    Jan  :-)
