Hello there friends! Some of you may already know the news, but I wanted to wait to shout it out here until voting was open. I have been nominated to be on the Board of the Crochet Guild Of America (CGOA)!! There are 3 open seats for the ’16/’17 term, and there are 5 candidates to fill those seats. Never before has there been a serious blogger on the CGOA Board, so I am really excited about the opportunity to represent the blogging community!!
So much of my success is due to the support I have received from the CGOA and it’s programs. It is really an amazing organization. If you read this blog and you are not a member, you really should be! 🙂 Your membership comes with a subscription to Crochet! Magazine, with a special official CGOA newsletter insert in each issue. It also gets you discounts at the Knit and Crochet Show (AKA Chain Link). PLUS, and in my opinion most importantly, you are supporting the crochet community, and becoming an important part of the crochet community. So, if you are not a member, join now!
If you are a member, you should have received an email with a link to read about each candidate and to vote. If you didn’t, check your email settings on the CGOA site, and wait a few days. If you don’t get your email by the end of the week, or at least by the end of the month, then click the contact button on the CGOA site to ask about voting. Voting is open until December 25th.

Ps. Just love your patterns x
Thank you!
I am wondering how this works with email subscribers to Crochet. I just started my subscription a week a go.
Any suggestions?
I would love to be able to vote for you
As in you have a subscription to Crochet! Magazine? That does not allow you to vote. You can only vote if you are a member of the CGOA. As a member of CGOA you get a free subscription to Crochet! Magazine and your issues will come with a special insert of the official CGOA Newsletter. I hope that helps. 🙂
