Meet the 2025 Crochet Twin Cities board

Our October meeting had a lot going on!   We had our board meeting, elected the 2025 Board, talked about plarn, cords & foundation stitches, voted on the topic for our January meeting with Edie Eckman and were reminded that we'll start collecting 2025 dues in November. The preferred method of payment is cash, if you can bring exact change ($24.00), even better.

Members can sign up for demonstrating at the Fall Fiber Festival via:  CTC Demonstration at Fall Fiber Fest — Signup Sheet | SignUp.com.  If you're on Facebook you can find information about the event on their page: Fall Fiber Festival.

Our 2025  Past President - Theresa,  President-Elect- Bree, Vice President - Brenda, Secretary - Gloria, Treasurer - Carla, Education Co-Chairs - Barb & Veronica

Our October 26th meet up will be at the Mall of America as usual.  November 9th is the Destash at Southdale Library. We'll be checking out options for our November 23rd meetup, as the remodeling at Rosedale Center has left insufficient seating. 

Our January 11 education topic with Edie Eckman will be Layered Grannies - watch for details in the newsletter.   

In 2025, CTC will sponsor an additional State Fair ribbon in honor of Susi McCune, long time Mn State Fair judge and friend to CTC.  It will be a People's Choice ribbon, with a $50.00 prize and 1-year free membership in Crochet Twin Cities.   People's Choice ribbons are voted for by all Creative Activities staff.  Our first sponsored ribbon for best overall crocheted wearable and the judges select the winner.   Susi's ribbon will be awarded to an entry in the granny square categories.

I look forward to seeing you at a meeting or meetup!  Theresa
