Photos of our Ekka 2026 Grand Champion Exhibit and Best Exhibit Smocking by Shona Lawrence.
I have it from the judge herself this little dress received a perfect score.
Well done Shona. 👏🎉💐

UPDATE
Shona not only won best exhibit in smocking but also Grand Champion Exhibit. Woo hoo 🎉🎉🎉

Ekka 2026 results are online today. Well done to each and every entrant but especially Shona for Best Exhibit of Smocking.
I had to put two photos as all the results wouldn’t fit in one.
