Softie Contest III

Hi everyone! I am sorry I have been so m.i.a. lately! Been busy, I'm sure you understand... I am pleased to announce the rules and regulations of our new SOFTIE CONTEST! Contest rules and regulations have been made by our Easter Softie Contest winner, Lani.

You must make a SOFTIE SEA CREATURE W/ A PROFESSION. There are 2 simple rules:
1) Softie must be a sea creature / animal of the sea.
2) Sea creature / animal must have a profession.

Examples: Shark surfing instructor, student guppy, trout belly dancer. I'm sure you get the picture!

Contest starts as of today (or whenever you read this) and ends on Thursday, May 1. Like the last contest, please be sure to email me the pictures of your softies by the end of the day at sewingmamas@gmail.com. Softies can be hand stitched, machine stitched, crocheted, knitted, or needle felted! Judging will be moderated by Lani. If possible, please omit names to ensure fair judging. ^_^ I will again post all submissions and start the voting on Friday, May 2. Every participant of the contest will have the chance to judge by choosing their top 2 favorite softies (other than themselves) and emailing their choices to me. Last day for voting will be on Sunday, May 4. Votes will be tallied and the winner will be announced on Cinco De Mayo!

Softies will be judged on:
1) Neatness
2) Originality
3) Following the rules
4) Cuteness!

Prize:
Lani will be giving the winner a SOFTIE SURPRISE of personal, hand picked items that would excite any softie lover. We're going to keep you in softie suspense!

Please inquire if you have any questions.
