 That year, her work was not only selected for the annual Cape Dorset Graphics Collection, it appeared on the catalogue’s cover.  
  
 Can this be rephrased as &amp;quot;That year, her work was not only selected for the annual Cape Dorset Graphics Collection but it also appeared on the catalogue&amp;#39;s cover. &amp;quot;

  That year, her work was not only selected for the annual Cape Dorset Graphics Collection . It appeared on the catalogue’s cover.
