Finally, this is the granddaddy of all the contests! And this year we have TWO big prizes to give away!
First up, fancykitty has donated a sweet prize--a Lap Fiber Artists Blending Palette, a $149 product! In case you haven't been to their site yet, Fancy Kitty makes some high-quality fiber blending options, from blending boards to drum carders of all sizes. The new owners happen to be good friends of mine (I grew up with them) and this is a very generous offer, in my opinion! Be sure to go to FancyKitty.com and check out their products.

The 2nd Grand Prize is not one, but TWO 4-oz braids of BFL/tussah silk in a lovely Koi Pond colorway, dyed by a local mother-daughter duo. The mother is a sister to THE Sarah Anderson (see main prize post for more details). This stuff is seriously soft and squishy!! I had to be sternly tough and not purchase some of this stuff for myself when I went to purchase this donation from her. At least I get to "pet it" from time to time until it makes it's way out the door.
ETA: Correction--this is actually only about 6 oz total, but still a lovely batch! My apologies for the mixup.

Since these are such nice prizes, we will make the qualifications a bit tougher. To earn it, you have to had participated in the entire event (with only 2 days of rest, just like the TdF bikers). Even if I was in the drawings, I would have disqualified myself here--I think I missed a day or 2 this event, so my hat is off to anyone who did this!
So for those who are almost there--don't give up!!!
Again, you need to enter your name by Sunday night, midnight (in your time zone), Sep 20, in order to be in the drawing, just to keep it fair.
