A month to remember, with some extraordinarily creative designs. All the winners — indeed, all the exhibitors — should be so proud of themselves! The photos, below, show the winners and the honorable mentions. Run your mouse over the images to see the names. Because the photos are of different proportions, you may want to click on the arrows at the right-hand corner of these thumbnails to see the designs in their full glory.
And, once again, thank you so much, Floss, for all your hard work capturing and organizing these designs as photographs. They allow us to create a pictorial record for us that will last as long as the internet is with us. And of course equal thanks as always to Fran Ackerly, Karen Whitehaus, and Michele Trevenen and their committees for setting up and wrangling the monthly profusion of gorgeousness and growth created and displayed by our members..
