CONGRATULATIONS TO LAURA HUTCHCROFT& MADE OUR SHOW
MADE Our Show debuted this past February at the Renaissance Hotel in Baltimore and it was a resounding success! Virtually everyone who attended, buyers and exhibitors alike, had wonderful things to say about the show. Not only were they pleased with the product offerings and the resulting buying and selling, but there was something even more important – they all said how wonderful it was for our community to be together!
Please join me in congratulating Laura! She undertook an enormous task, a brand-new show and in a completely new venue, and she made it shine. Also, do not wait too long to sign up, registration is open now at www.madeourshow.com. Make a note of the dates: FEBRUARY 17-19, 2026.

A PERSONAL NOTE
It has taken me a few weeks to function again. As many of you know, my husband Madis died on January 31st. This was very unexpected, the first day in the hospital they expected he would go home the next day. I am grateful to all of you who have sent messages of condolence – I truly appreciate it. Madis was both a lover of craft and an information junkie, - his knowledge of this industry was enormous. I am including a link to a wonderful article the publisher and editor of Sunshine Artist magazine included in this month’s issue.
