Adios Once Again ~

I feel like I just got home . . . oh wait I did . . . and I am taking off again.  I wish the get aways were not so close together, but I must take advantage of fun when I can.  Tomorrow I am off to the Fall Fling, about three hours south.  It is a two day hooking event put on by the Wooly Horse, Rustic Eweniques, Jo's Folk Art Fibers and Ali Strebel Designs.  Three of us are driving down together and will meet up with several others.  Our first stop will be to one of my favorite antique shops ~ where I hope I don't find anything I can't live without 😁.

I'm sure many of you have read about Saundra's hook along.  She has posted a few pictures on her blog.  It's hard to believe that Nancy has already finished hers and it is wonderful!  She gets the overachiever award for sure.  

I did get mine started but not a whole lot hooked so far 😞.  But hey, it's a start and hope to accomplish lots more at the hook in (though I usually don't!).

Last night I pulled a few more loops.  Normally my go-to favorite size of worms is an 8.5 (8.5/32"), but after hooking most of the dark outlines in a 10 (10/32"), the 8.5 felt miniscule!  And to think many hookers use a 3 cut (3/32") and some even a 2 cut (2/32" ~ dental floss to me) . . . oh, my.  But they can get detail and shading that I cannot.

Our weather here in northern Ohio has been beyond beautiful (though sadly no rain).  I have worked a bit cleaning up the gardens but have so much more to do.  It's a never ending task.

The other Nancy ~ whoever you are ~ can you please send me your email address?  I would love to be able to respond to your comments.  They are much appreciated.

Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs 😊
