CGOA Conference 2017

Good Morning Everyone,

We are enjoying a beautiful late summer day in New York, and I am busy working on a new project. I know that I am late with this, but I just wanted to post some fun pictures from the recent CGOA conference that took place in the Chicago area. Next year the conference will be held on the West Coast, so I hope some of you will be able to attend this great event.  I also wanted to announce the giveaway of a copy of my latest Granny Square Book Second Edition. To be eligible just leave a comment below (be sure to leave your email address). There will be a random drawing on Sept 12, and if you win, I will contact you for your mailing information. Sorry, but this offer is only open to US and Canada residents.


Be sure to leave a comment and your email address to eligible for drawing.

Have a great day

Margaret

Thanks for your offer. I love to crochet and your work is certainly something to aspire to! But first the great patterns in your books.

Hi Margaret. Thanks for all the great pics of the CGOA conference. Miss all of my fellow hookers from the HHCC, but Brooklyn is just too far for me to travel up from. I'd sure love to win a copy of your Granny Square Book!

I am relatively new to the crochet world and as luck would have it, I joined the Northern Illinois crochet guild a couple of months before the conference. I was able to attend and was so excited and had so much fun. I have your complete guide to crochet. It is so very full of great information. It was so awesome to be amongst so many wonderful designers.Thank you for all you do.
