the big news!

I've been accepted into the AltCraft section of the 2009 Ameican Craft Council show in Baltimore. Here is a bit about it:
Fifteen makers will be juried into this bustling section, which celebrates
the innovative techniques and materials of the burgeoning handmade movement.
This is an opportunity for talented artists and indie designers to gain
national exposure at a well-established show.
I was going to wait until they sent out the press release but just can't! I am so excited, I applied last year and didn't get in. But this year I feel so ready, my line is better defined and I have a solid focus on my 2009 goals. What a terrific way to start off the new year! I feel like I won an award! I will post more on this as we get close, now it's back to the holiday making frenzy!

WOW! That is big news. Congratulations. And only 15 people are chosen? That is huge news. Way to go. I have yet to make it to an ACC show, but had already started looking into the 2009 Baltimore show. I will see you there!
