CHA, Day 1!
Greetings from Anaheim, CA! I’m getting ready to head out for a day of meetings in demos but wanted to share with you some pictures from yesterday at CHA (Crafts & Hobbies Association convention). Enjoy!
With Kathy Cano-Murillo, at the Duncan Craft booth where she’s promoting her line Crafty Chica.
Promo poster in the Sterling/Lark Publishing booth for my May ’09 book, Pop Goes Crochet.
With scrapbooking queen, Sandi Genovese.
Drew and I teaching how to crochet beer cozies & bangles, at the Sterling/Lark booth.
A student posing with her finished bangle.
Sterling publicist Leigh-Ann Ambrosi, making a bangle.
Leigh-Ann pleased as punch that she learned how to crochet.
I snuck out of the convention for a bit to avoid the Paris Hilton appearance (to promote her craft line) craziness, and do a little in-hotel crafting for Tuesday’s Tulip paint demo.
Creative Juice’s Steve Piacenza & Cathile Filian working at the Plaid booth. They’re Mod Podge’s national spokes people!
With Knitty Gritty seasons 7 & 8’s supervising producer, Kelly Erlich.
With Cathie Filian and Drew Emborsky (aka The Crochet Dude) at our publisher’s party.
Publisher/author dinner at Buca Di Beppo in Anaheim.
Ok, off to Day 2 of CHA. Check back here (RH column) for Twitter updates, throughout the convention!
