The National NeedleArts Association (TNNA) Conference 2015

Greetings from the TNNA Conference in Columbus, Ohio!  This is the first time I've attended this trade show and with the help of my daughter Becky and my newly graduated son Joseph, we are learning a lot and having fun along the way.  I want to share some of our day with you...

While visiting with Mrs. Chester (of Cestari Yarns) today, we found out that this lovely lady met all of the members of the Beatles when they were on tour in NY many years ago!  

A tee pee made of yarn anyone???  What a fun idea for a play fort or a mommy escape!

Some of the books published by my publisher, F + W Media/Interweave...

At today's book signing...

It was so much fun meeting people at the F + W Media/Interweave booth today!

And for the record, we found WALDO!

No trip to Ohio would be complete in our family without some Cincinnati chili!  This was Joseph & Becky's first time to visit Skyline Chili.

A "Three-Way" spaghetti, and a "Coney" hotdog.  Mmmm...

 Yes, these were delicious!
