I think I need to start a contest/awards category because there always seems to be some sweet new contest popping up to single out talented crafters and, frankly, I need a way to keep tabs on it all.
Here's the latest awesome contest opportunity brought to you by Etsy and CRAFT Magazine (from the people behind MAKE):
"Using whatever medium you desire (knitting, sewing, jewelry,
beading, painting, photography, needlepoint, woodburning, anything!) we
challenge you, the people of Etsy, to represent, reinterpret or remix
CRAFT Magazine's logo in any way you see fit. The editors and
publishers of CRAFT Magazine along with the Etsy admins will select
four submissions based on their creativity and overall artistic
quality. All submissions must be completed and listed as items for sale
on Etsy by August 21, 2006.

I want a Make It reader to be chosen as one of the final four. This is great publicity, people! Go!
Hi there! I found you via fashion-incubator today and just wanted to wish you luck with this blog. I think you have a very good idea going here and hope you manage to continue with your focus on creativity and how to earn a living doing it. We all want it, but it's sometimes hard to know where to go next or to believe that it might one day be possible.

Hi Aiar,
