Class projects ~

So many talented hookers were in the Jenny Smallridge class hooking a wide variety of rugs!

Debbie finished all but the eyes on her Love Birds rug, in honor of her 50th wedding anniversary this year.  Congrats to Debbie and hubby.


Geez, on my phone the colors are true to color, but not when transferred to the post.  Darn!  Kathy's antique adaptation is absolutely wonderful.  She was in both sessions of Jenny's class and was so close to finishing.  Jenny owns the original antique.


Sue's HUMUNGOUS rug, 4' x 5'.  With Jenny's help, she changed up some of the motifs.


Robyn's fun antique adaptation, and once again the original antique is owned by Jenny.


Pam is working on a Jenny pattern . . . 8' long.  She has the perfect spot in her home for a rug that large.


A pattern that Julie designed and is sold through the Woolley Fox.  Both she and Tammy were hooking it.  I love seeing the same pattern hooked in totally different colorways.



Tanya's rug.  She always chooses the best colors.  I just love her red barn.


Another rug Tanya brought along.  An antique adaptation.  She was incorporating some alternative fabrics and was getting ready to add some gauze.


Peggy, Carroll and Terry were working on Jenny's scrappy rugs.




And finally, the start to my rug, an antique adaptation.


There are two antique shops across from the Hotel Millersburg.  I'd say antiques are few and far between.  I snapped this picture there.  Seriously?  Would someone actually buy this?  It was good for a laugh.


Thanks so much for stopping by.

As usual ~

I am leaving for a three day rug class tomorrow and I have barely begun to pack, but that's pretty normal for me.  I guess I will never learn, but it will all get done, and if I forget anything will just have to purchase it!

First this morning I needed to mow the lawn.  Thankfully only a 35 minute task (my yard is small!!!).  It really did not need it, but I figured by the time Friday rolled around it would be looking pretty shabby.

Also, it's that time of year.  Lousy timing . . . but I made time for it today.


Believe it or not I have a finish to share.  Of course not fully finished but the hooking is done.  Pattern by Cathy Stephan of Red Barn Rugs.  I added the 1776 and 2026.  I am happy with the finish!!!  (I just can't get a picture that is not washed out.)


And I finally pulled a (very) loops on my June class rug, Indian Peace Flag by the Woolley Fox.  This rug is a biggie and my goal is to finish it in 2026.


That's it.  Really must go work on my packing.

Hopefully will take pictures at class!!!

Thanks so much for stopping by.
