		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;re very pleased here at AH Magazine to announce that our team member Karen has won an international design competition with an idea that is brilliant yet elegantly simple. The challenge of the Upcycle Contest, create something new  from something old, has been embraced by Karen for years, and her background in crafting and fashion made her decision to turn an empty lipstick tube into a pin cushion a natural. The contest was sponsored by Sublime Stitching in an effort to promote environmental awareness and creativity among its readership of crafters, craftivists, and textile artisans. Judging was done by Jenny Hart; an internationally published artist and illustrator and an award-winning author of multiple titles on embroidery for Chronicle Books; and Autumn Wiggins of The Upcycle Exchange, and regular contributor to Crafting a Green World. A deep curtsy from all of us at AH Mag; bravo Karen. With files from Karen.]]></description>
