Kim Cutler got HM for this design. She neglected to read the glossary which said a pot et fleur should use only one container.

Former WGC member Ginna Thoma got a red ribbon for this design and the Bettie Pardee award for using only flowers from her garden.

Susan Dewey got a red ribbon for her fabulous, flamboyant hat!

This lovely picture hat was created by Julie Lapham.
