Default Blue Ribbon Winner Ornament

Hi All, just had to crow a bit OK a lot! LOL
Here is my newest 'Cradle Doll Ornament' which took 1st Place at the Yavapai County Fair. I entered in the Wooden Christmas Ornament Division.
Needless to say I'm very pleased!
Kathy
All told I won 4 ribbons, 2 blue, 2 red....

Ron, Kenny, Mel, Tom H, Blake, Mary, Chuck
Thank you, for your congratulations on my award/awards. This little Cradle Doll is slightly different from the others. I added a carved feather to the top of the head and carved in legs, shoes and painted in earrings. I only wish I would have thought to do that for the Exchange Ornaments. I'm so pleased you like this little one.
I've been cutting out more on my new bandsaw for my daughter and granddaughters to paint while visiting us in October. They all are very crafty and will just love creating their own speical Christmas ornament.
Kathy
