What an event! The online praises are everywhere about Chain Link 2010, held in Manchester NH the first week of July. We hope you’ll be there next year - Minneapolis, July 27-31. There’s nothing wrong with planning ahead! You could never have more fun than be surrounded by non-stop crocheters everywhere – and knitters too, since this was a joint show with TKGA. But since I’m on the board of CGOA, my focus was on the CGOA events.
I have a few blog entries because we had way too much fun – and too many photos – to put in one post. So let me start from the first event: the Design Competition, chaired by none other than our bud – and designer extraordinaire – Doris Chan. My shots of Doris were way too blurry to show here – wonder why?? That girl never stops moving!
The first event was the judging of the Design Competition entries, aptly handled by Jean Leinhauser, Edie Eckman and Bobbie Matella.

Then all the entries were mounted to show them at their best.

CGOA had a wonderful volunteer professional photographer, so check out the photos on the Flicker pool on www.crochet.org.
