The KGI Worldwide Contest winners were just announced and I am pleased to say that I won Fourth Place! I feel so honored to be recognized amongst so many other talented designers. But this couldn't have happened without the support of those who came out to the Tucson Bead Show and voted for my piece. 50% of the judging was done by popular vote and I truly feel that this is what allowed my Crystal Caterpillar bracelet to place. Thank you so much for believing in my designs and for supporting my work yet again! THANK YOU!Oh! If I'm allowed, I'm going to pass along my good fortune and have my own mini-contest on my blog. The winner will receive my prize: a one year subscription to Beadwork magazine. (I'll know soon if I can transfer my prize.)
