In her acceptance speech, Judy Riddell paid homage to Homespun's hardworking, visionary Board of Directors and to the assistance of Carlyle and area's 'five-star volunteers' for the resounding success of the 25-year-old event.

The occasion was the 'Event of the Year Award' (Budget under $20,000) sponsored by Saskatchewan Ministry of Tourism, Parks, Culture and Sport -- at a banquet held earlier this year.

Homespun attracts over 80 vendors from across Canada and approximately 4,000 shoppers a year to the town of 1,300. Morphing from a one-day, one-event show to a two-day, three-event show showcasing crafts, quilts and collectible vehicles, vendors sell about $150,000 worth of goods during the festivities.

Homespun Craft Show and Sale has been dubbed "The Biggest Little Craft Show in Saskatchewan".
