I had forgot that there was a prize of a Gold patch. I'll be proudly wearing the patch next month when I display my works at the annual craft show where I offer my works for sale.
Those of you living near Pittsburgh PA, please drop by and say hi. It's the South Park Woman's club 19th Annual Craft Show Saturday, Oct 13th 2012 10 AM-4 PM.
Home Economics Building, South Park Fairgrounds.

I'm working with a local print shop that I found only two miles from my home that will be making very inexpensive prints of my works. What ever I don't sell I'll be giving to my friends and relatives as presents. I have found photos to be a hard sale in the past and I barely break even in these hard times. I think this year will be different because of the appeal the hummers have and the ridiculously low prices I will be able to pass on from the print shop. They print directly on to foam board, eliminating the need for a frame or mounting board. I'll be selling 8 by 12 inch, ready to hang foam board prints for $22.20 and 36 by 24 inch canvas wraps for $99. I can ship anywhere in the USA for $5.

Kerfree, "How I did it" is all explained here:
