World Cup - Last few hours!
Well, the final of the Football World Cup saw Italy as the winners. I wouldn't have guessed they would win based on their performance in the first games. It just goes to show the world is full of surprises!
I am really pleased to anounce that we have 17 World Cup winners so far! I expect a couple more to put their hand up over the next couple of days. I will be away next week, and return home on the 16th of July, when I shall post the Champions Gallery! The Winners badge will also be available then... This also means you all have until Saturday July 15th to post your World Cup pictures! You have until midnight of July 9th to finish your stitching... please try not to cheat too much! ;o)
Here is a list of all the winners so far:

sulinpanda: GOAL! (need pic)xstitcher: GOAL!As promissed we will have the Golden Needle Award. Here is how it will work, those team members that :
- achieved their World Cup goal(s)
- posted picture(s) of their finished project
- if goal was to finish an existing WIP: posted pic of the WIP at the start of the World Cup
When I post the Gallery of Champions for the World cup, I will also make a post with the list of winners eligible for the Golden Needle Award on my journal. Voting will be done by replying to that post, all replies will be screened (this will keep voting secret - OK, I'll know who voted for who... but I promise not to tell). Voting will be open for 1 week. At the end of that week I will count the votes and anounce the winner!
Criteria for allocating your vote will be flexible: best looking project, largest, fastest stitcher... nicest stitcher. Anything goes!
This is a special award and there will be only 1 winner for this award... no second places! Golden Needle Award winner gets: a huge boost to their stitching confidence and because I am feeling generous... some Zweigart fabric (either aida, linen or evenweave depending on preference of the winner) - that is assuming winner is willing to trust me and send their snail mail address to me. ;o)
Enjoy your week! And Happy Stitching!
