That is so great!! Was it a hard or long process to get published?? Have you been published before?? I was just curious, because I have a few things that I might want to try to get published. I wouldn't know what to do!!! :hook

Thank you everyone!!! It's been a long learning process, but it is so thrilling to finally see my items in print!!

FOr those of you interested in having items published, I strongly recommend joining the CGOA (www.crochet.org) and applying for a mentor through the Associate Professional program. That is what I did and learned SO MUCH!

Thanks again!! Please send me pictures of your finished products!!!
