One of our customer's asked me if Columbia would donate prizes for the dutch oven cook-off at the fair. We thought we could just donate some hats or something we had on hand, but Jeff decided that maybe we should do something a little more original. So we did woven baskets with the fixings for a cobbler...done in a dutch oven. I used some plaid fabric I had laying around to line each basket. I asked Stephanie if she could make up a little poem to put on a tag for the baskets, and she didn't disappoint me. It's amazing to me that I can ask almost every one of my kids to write a poem...and they could do it. I can't do it at all. But, I thought they turned out pretty cute. I wrapped them up in cellophane and tied it with another piece of the plaid fabric. When the lady came to pick up the prizes, I think she was very surprised and pleased with how they looked. I hope so anyway.
