Today was the annual Western Reserve Rug Hooking guild's hook-in. What fun. Of course, I barely got the camera out and only have a few things to share.
Betsy's bunnies ~ Betsy of Heavens to Betsy fame. They were hooked with handtorn strips . . .
. . . and finished "Betsy style". Aren't they fun?
I purchased the pattern for the medium sized bunny.
Rhonda (My Glory Stars) and Betsy.
Oh, I do love this rug Kaye is hooking. She always chooses THE BEST primitive colors, but she did say she hooked the rooster THREE times.
Alice's gorgeous wools . . .
. . . and Donna's.
Isn't this bulldog a hoot? The dog was hooked in handtorn strips.
My winnings from the Chinese auction. It also came with the finest rug hook I've ever seen. I think you'd use that hook to hook dental floss . . . lol. I gave it away before I thought to take a picture.
For the second year in a row I got lucky and won a door prize.
Even without a flash the colors are too bright.
Yummy new wools (not the true colors, either).
And another Heavens to Betsy pattern. I still haven't hooked the cat pattern I bought from her a couple years ago :)
Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs :)
Lauren
