OOOH! I went to go look at the link and it looks TOO COOL! I'm about 2 1/2 - 3 hours away from Atlanta and my inlaws live there, so we're down about once a month or so (from TN) boy is it tempting to go.. at least to the open market. Will you be attending? I'm not currently a member of the CGOA but after looking at the information it seems like it could be a good birthday or christmas gift. Are you a member? It sounds like something worth doing.. I just wanted another oppinion.
My little heart sank when I looked through the list and saw NOTHING for TN - I've only been crochetting for about 2 1/2 years, but I always thought I could teach a beginner class or do one of those instore demo's for Crochet Month.

Haha, this is awesome...when I was more of a cross stitcher I went to a show like that in Pennsylvania, my parents were AWESOME and set up their vacation around it. Just walking around the market was unbelievable. There's one in New Hampshire, and close enough for me to find it worth it to go. New hooks and patterns, here we come....

Unfortunately, I am not going. :( Long drive for me, I think about eight hours. Plus it is a bit expensive.

I am a member of the CGOA, though. I just joined recently and I am excited about it. :jump I haven't received my membership materials yet. Also there is a free subscription to Crochet! magazine included with membership, yay! :D
