Anywhoo...
This will be my numero uno blog!; think I'm getting the hang of it now, but still having difficulty with links in my sidebar. I won't post links to individual blogs, but I'd like to include more blog buttons, so I could use some help with that.
I've been doing more teaching than crocheting lately ;) , but once March (National Crochet Month) is over, I can focus on finishing up some of my WIPs (works in progress), items for the fashion show at the CGOA (www.crochet.org) conference in New Hampshire and preparing for my summer class (hopefully).
I'd also like some of that other cool stuff, like a progress bar, calendar, etc. Can somebody hook a sista up?!
