NBC called and said they loved my work and my website and they asked me if I would consider being on the show, Making It, with Amy Poehler and Nick Offerman.  I had never seen the show, but I said, “Yes” and I immediately watched this competitive crafting show.  After a telephone interview with the assistant producer, a SKYPE interview with the producer, and uploading every piece of art that I have ever made, I received an email asking if I was available on certain dates and what my closest airport is. 

I was not a selected this time as a finalist.  Oh well, it was a fun and exciting experience.  This experience forced me to organize and update the images of my work and was the inspiration for my newest hand puppet.
