There is a saying that floats around the design community and it goes something like this.
If you work with your hands you are a laborer.
If you work with your hands and your head you are a craftsman.
If you work with your hands, your head and your head you are an artist.
The EHBA is extremely proud of this years winner. Immediately after Haiti’s tragic earthquake she put her hands, her head and her heart to work to design, procure materials and sew 1,000 dresses for the little girls of the island nation.
Members of the EHBA helped sidestep some logistical problems with the delivery of the dresses.
