Hook In ~


Today was the biennial hook-in hosted by the Lorain County (Ohio) Hookcrafters.  What fun to take a day off work and spend time with hooking friends.  AND . . . I actually got a little hooking done.  

Here are a few of the rugs from the show.  



Terrible picture, but I love this rug!













I apologize to Arlene for this lousy picture.  This rug was one of my favorites and the colors in person are beautiful.






This picture was taken without a flash and the colors are STILL too bright.  Donna really hooks dark and dirty!  LOVE IT!


Tomorrow it's back to reality ~ aka work, but it sure was great to play today.
Thanks for stopping by.
Pug hugs :)
Lauren

    It is always such a treat to be able to look at rugs. What fun to be able to take off and go to a hook in. I think I would enjoy that kind of day.

    what a great and varied array of rugs at your local hook in - I hate when they have these on week days - there is one downstate I always want to attend but it would shoot too much time off from work. Glad you got to go. Mel

    Well, your Tuesday was certainly better spent than mine. :o( Another bunch of great rugs - can't believe the incredible detail in the raccoon. But, I think I'm missing something with the fishing one??? (Too much time cooking in the kitchen tonight????) Smiles & Hugs ~ Robin
