CHAIN LINK 2012


Good Morning Everyone,


Thursday, Friday and Saturday, were days filled with classes, book signings, visiting the market etc. I have a lot of photos, but not a lot of time, but I will post them all.  The Saturday Night festivities were truly the highlight of so many wonderful times. 



My son took a photo of Kimberly McAlindin presenting me with a beautiful handcrafted glass vase, with a plaque on the bottom stating that I had been inducted into the Jean Leinhauser CGOA Hall of Fame. I cannot even put my feelings into words, it was overwhelming.




 Following the great Jean Leinhauser into the Hall of Fame is a huge honor, and I was "almost" speechless.  I really did not think that I was going to be asked to speak, but I think that I managed to say "Thank You" several times. 




Bobbie Matela, Kathleen Sams and Me, my daughter in law had just presented me with a bouquet of flowers. It was so great having my family there.




After the ball was over, an "after party" took place in the hotel lounge, we are a fun loving group.  Marty Miller, Marcy Smith and Me, enjoying the fun.


Kimberly and Me.






Vashti, Diane Moyer and Me again.




My camera does not do well at the fashion show, but my son managed to get this photo of my long vest. the vest includes motifs from all the classes that I teach, and combines approximately 50 different yarns in shades of black, gold, bronze and many textures.


No more time today, still more photos to come.


Have a great day!


Margaret
