Seeing a purple ribbon attached to your County Fair entry makes all the hours spent on that project worthwhile. 
The Mlady sisters, Eisley and Emersyn, have earned a fair share of those coveted purple ribbons in pre-fair judging earlier this summer.
Eisley, 10, was awarded purple in her speech, her painted barn quilt, sewn pillow and modeling. 
Her older sister Emersyn, 12, earned her purples in modeling, sewn pillow, pajama pants, and painted barn quilt.
