The Softie Awards

Winner of the Mahar Dry Goods Featurette

Congratulations to Cupcakes for Clara who has been chosen by Mahar Dry Goods to be the featured Softie Award winner in the shop! Kitty bank pictured on the far right of the photo was the Best Functional Softie winner.

And the winners are....

The envelope please....here are your Softie Award winners! There were nearly 3500 votes! Some categories were really close, in fact only 10 votes separated the winner from the runner up in the Animal category - so I hope everyone got a chance to vote. ALL the finalists made wonderful softies.

CONGRATULATIONS TO THE WINNERS!

This is the Award Ribbon each winner will receive along with a prize. Thanks to Cal Patch for whipping up these gorgeous ribbons!

Winners: please email me your full name and address so that I can send you your prize (email link to the left of this post).
