As usual, I failed to take many pictures at the two day Spring Fling!
Here are the few I captured of items being worked on at the table next to me.
This turkey was absolutely amazing. Linda is not yet a hooker, but does amazing punch needle! I've never seen a piece quite like this.
She is now working on a turkey table mat. Simply beautiful and much larger than most punch needle pieces.
Deb, whom we met the first time we attended, has become a dear friend. Whatever she works on is perfection. With permission, she adapted a hooking pattern (by Connie Bradley) to applique. Her daughter works for Ohio State.
This hooker was so close to being done with her rug. I believe it was started in a class with Donna Hrkman, a name familiar to many hookers.
Travel mate Linda was working on her Lucille Festa design started last fall in a class with Kris Miller.
My other travel mate Val was working on a rug by Wild Cranberry Rugs. They sell many paper patterns on etsy. I know some people do not like to transfer a pattern to linen, but I find it very cost effective (maybe cuz I'm cheap?).
I will share the progress on my rug soon . . . since so little progress has been made . . . sigh.
Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs 😊

OMG, what wonderful work by everyone. That 3-D turkey was awesome, so were those feet. Of course the horses make my heart skip a beat and colors of others were great and can’t wait to see them on my PC later.

I agree completely with Mummy D - wonderful work by everyone! That turkey is AWESOME!! I saw a pattern for it on Etsy a year (or more?) ago and was captivated but chickened out on actually attempting it. I no longer decorate for Thanksgiving (other than a David T. Smith turkey I have) so why go through the torture of that much punching LOL. Her mat is equally amazing. I haven't done any punching in a long, long, while but, foolishly, just bought a new pattern to do. (Why do I do that????!) The beautiful appliqué projects also reminds me I have several of those projects lingering somewhere as well. (Do you think I have guilt issues maybe?) ;-)
Love all the photos. So much talent. The needle punches are amazing. Makes me want to get out my supplies. But I don't need to start another project until I finish all I've got going on.
Wow !!! What amazing punch needle and hooking !!! Beautiful work !!! Had to be amazing to be with all these very talented woman !
That turkey is amazing! Looks of great things being worked on.
