Sorry, I haven't heard from Tatiana yet---but I believe she will accept one piece from each entering member.
She will be contacting  each of us individually....just a little later than I had thought.
We had 25 people enter---and I know she is amazed at the variety we have given her to choose from.

She will let each person arrange the time to drop off on those dates.
