CHA Review/Wrap Up

Update:  This post wasn’t working earlier so I have re-done it. Should work now for leaving your comments.

Join us for a CHA Winter 2014 Wrap up on Ustream at my normal Wednesday stream time of 10 am PST.  I have some give aways and samples to show. Comment here and on my Facebook Business page (Laura Denison Designs) to be in the running for the give-aways. I will do the drawing at around 7 pm PST tonight. I will post winners her and on Facebook.

    Love, love, love the G45 By The Sea paper–would love to get my hands on it before it’s in the stores.
    Thanks for doing the shows from the CHA floor, and the wrap up today.
    Get a good rest and I’ll see you Friday night

    I really enjoyed your play-by-plays this week, Laura. It was so fun watching you walk the show floor live. Reminded me of the days I walked the TNNA show floor in Columbus, OH for my yarn shop. Exiting and tiring all at once, plus seeing your “online” friends in person once a year. So fun!
