Excellence in Needle Arts Award

Wow! Wow! Wow! You've got to see this. The National Needlearts Association (TNNA) has announced the winners of their Excellence in Needle Arts Award for 2006. The first place in Knit and Crochet is a lapghan designed and made by a 15 year old "who recently picked up the craft". You sure wouldn't know that by looking at this stunning and very unusual design.
Thanks to Robin who posted this link in her blog "Crocheting Lessons" and then posted a message and link to Crochet Partners.
You can also go to the "Interweave Press" site and see all the winners of the Excellence in Needle Arts Awards. Check out the delicate tatted baby bonnet and booties, and the gorgeous counted thread work while you're at this site.
Hope you're inspired.
