Welcome to Our Parlor Scavenger Hunt: Results

Congratulations to Bonnie C.! She is the winner of Arachne Silken Web's  Needle Retail Show "Welcome to Our Parlor Scavenger Hunt". Bonnie's name was randomly drawn from the pool of entrants who answered all five scavenger hunt questions correctly. As the winner, she has received a $25 gift certificate toward the total purchase price of any new Arachne design released in 2010.

Here are the answers to the scavenger hunt questions. How many did you answer correctly?

1. Arachne’s Silken Web’s designers live in what city?  New York City

2. How many of the designs displayed on our website feature bees in the design? Acceptable answers: 9 or 10

• Banded Bee Skep
  
• Bee Noel
• Bee on Time Mantel Clock
• Decking the Hive
• Christmas Bee Candles
  
• Come All Ye Christmas Bees
• O Christmas Bee
• Sleigh Bells Buzz
• Queen Bee
• 2008 Free Chart (since the bee in this design could also be a stylized butterfly, we accepted 9 as a correct answer to this question)
  

3. What inspired our 2006 freebie design? The brickwork design on the smokestack of the Willamantic Thread Company in Willamantic, Connecticut.

4. Who challenged Arachne to a stitching competition? Actually, Arachne challenged the goddess Minerva. (We included in the drawing anyone who answered Minerva since the question was a little misleading.)

5. What six words make up the subtitle to our blog Inside Arachne’s Silken Web? Bright lights, big city, sharp needles.

Thanks to everyone who participated in the contest. We hope you had fun and enjoyed the show.
