Our "Winter Woolies" Tree at the Festival of Trees

The Festival of Trees was during the Thanksgiving weekend. Tuesday night a few guild members decorated our tree for the event and it came out beautiful! Here are a few photos of our tree with some of the beautiful ornaments we created!

Friday, around 12:30, guild member Gloria was on stage when they announced the winners. Unfortunately, we didn't win a ribbon and we are not exactly sure how they judge the winners, but our tree came out wonderful and is a winner to us! Proceeds for all donated trees benefit United Cerebral Palsy.

LIKCG'S WINTER WOOLIES
Here's our tree topper with some novelty eyelash yarn, with needles sticking out and five larger sweaters (that wouldn't fit into the ornaments) spelling out the word P-E-A-C-E.

Here's some of our ornaments. It was difficult to take pictures of all the ornaments and the tree. Our tree was in a grouping with two other trees.
