Hi, Alan. I wanted to give you a heads up that the Needle and ThREAD: Stitching for Literacy 2009 Bookmark Challenge is happening right now. There are three design contests taking place this year. Info on the Events and Contests page on the Web site.
As always, you are my primary source for bookmark news, and I appreciate it.
Cheers!
