Help me, Help you… lol
Just kidding, sort of. I plan on attending the Crochet Guild of America’s Fall Conference in Concord NC, October 2-6, 2013. There are many classes available and I would like to attend as many of these as possible. I plan on using this knowledge to bring you more free crochet patterns and business information.
I know not everyone can attend conferences like this and I want you to feel like you are there with me. I plan on broadcasting the October 2nd episode of Cre8tion Crochet LIVE from the conference. I’m even hoping to get some special guests from the conference on the show (I’ve got some pokers in the fire for some really exciting guests, hopefully it works out).
My good friend, Jessie of Jessie at Home, will also be attending the conference with me… I am hoping to earn enough so that I can help her pay for her lodging during the conference (I am able to stay with family but unfortunately they do not have the room for her to stay as well). As you probably know Jessie and I are also working on our CGOA Masters Program together.
There are many different size packages available and they all have different benefits. The one you may be the most excited about is a custom yarn bowl from my good friend Mandy, of Mudcrush Pottery. For only $50 you will get your custom bowl AND shipping (to anywhere in the Continental US). $25 of the fee will cover your shipping and Mandy is so generously donating the other $25 to my fund.
There are also packages available that include a custom Tree of Life or Crochet Ring Necklace from me and shout outs on the Cre8tion Crochet FB page and Cre8tion Crochet LIVE. If you own a business, big or small, there are many packages available for you as well. FundMe.com only allows you a small amount of room to list the benefits for each package, full package information is available bellow.
If you are interested in donating please click on the link below. I thank you for your continued support through my crochet journey. happy hookin’
