I received a box from Quilting Arts the other day. In it was the bracelet I submitted to the Cloth Paper Scissors "Life's A Beach" reader's challenge. Also in the box was a comp issue of the July/August issue of CPS, with my bracelet on page 78!!! It was so exciting to see it there on the pages of a magazine.
I'm not going to show the bracelet just yet ... when the magazine hits newsstands, I hope you'll check it out! But here's a photo of the box I altered to send it to the magazine. I figured I will hold onto this piece and it needed to have a happy home.
I am really thrilled to be published, and hoping this experience will give me more confidence to put my work "out there".

I just got my issue and saw your braclet "WOW" very cool. Was wondering what you use for filler.
