I made my annual trek to Sauder Village today. It is rug week. Classes, workshops, gallery talks and so much more. One of these years I am going to go for more than a day. The rug show is nothing like you've ever seen. SO MUCH talent in one room. Hundreds of rugs. It is absolutely amazing to experience.
Crooked River Rug Hookers had a rug challenge for the show. "All Things Chicken" could be whatever you wanted it to be . . . just so somehow it was chicken related. There were no restrictions as to size, materials used, etc. Sadly though many initially showed enthusiasm, only seven of us participated. I think because of our limited number of hooked pieces, we were relegated to an area facing a wall where the lighting wasn't very good. Kudos to CRRH member Rita for organizing this.
Here is my little rug. I half expected it to be pulled from the show for offending someone. I mean, we must be so politically correct 😬 It was a paper pattern I found on Facebook many years ago by a designer called Thought Blossoms.
I have many rugs to share in the coming days.
Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs 😊
