Remembering ... Celebration XIX

It's 2009, and the first year that high-resolution digital images could be uploaded for submission and judging. The Celebration staff observed that they were seeing more and more rugs in the Original Designs and Adaptation categories. This issue featured a look at decorating with rugs in the 1860s Pennsylvania home of Linda Malarney. And, it's the second year that the Celebration rugs were displayed at Sauder Village!

Most important, of course, were the artists of Celebration 2009. And here they are!
