A Little More about Cedar Lakes ~

Here are a few pictures from the Cedar Lakes rug show.  It was hard to take pictures since they were lying flat on tables.  To view the entire show, head on over to Facebook and go to Dragonfly on the Lakes.  

Designed by one of the camp attendees.  Four wonderful versions.

I am always in awe of rugs hooked from a black and white photo.

The next two rugs in the show were hooked by my teacher, Jeanne Benjamin.  I believe this is a Lib Calloway pattern she sells.

Love this fun detail.

And if memory serves me correctly, this was designed by Bev Conway.  Funny.  Bev doesn't think her patterns are whimsical.

Jeanne hooked a self portrait.  What a hoot 😁

Here are two more rugs hooked by Jeanne that were on display in our classroom.  In person, this rug was absolutely gorgeous and so primitive.

The camp director had bought out someone's rug business sometime in the past.  She brought hundreds of rugs and was selling them HALF PRICE.  Well, how can I resist such a bargain . . . and I could have bought even more!

All the patterns I purchased are on linen.  I choose not to hook on monk's.  Only used monk's once many years ago, a very small pattern I drew up, and I did NOT like working on it.  Just a personal preference.

Sheep pattern is by Star Rug Company.  Briner's Bouquet is a Magdalena Briner Eby adaptation, this one drawn by Red Barn Rugs.  On the bottom is the small Guilford Runner, sold by the Woolley Fox.

Another antique adaptation, this one drawn by Never Enough Wool.  It is 22 1/2 x 37, so a big rug for me.  If you are interested in this pattern, Saundra sells it here.

Last but not least are two small patterns.  The Goosed Moose is a pattern by Wooly Woolen.  Pumpkin Man is by DG (??).  The side margins are very skimpy and I will need to add fabric to make it hookable, but for only $5, I could not pass it up.

Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs 😊
