Amish Country Hook-In ~

 

Maggie Bonanomi was the featured artist at the Amish Country hook in on Saturday.  I'm sure many of you will recognize this rug from her latest book of the same name.

 



 

Here she is in her booth with hubby.

 

A couple of her rugs.  

 

I love this one but I don't believe there is a pattern available for it. 

 

These pics were taken peeking over shoulders.  SO MUCH talent and so much fun to see what others are hooking.

 

 

 

These are Betsy's creations, as in Heavens to Betsy.

I believe this technique is her own and she calls it shagging (but pointed out in England that word has an entirely different meaning).  It really adds depth and texture to the sheep.

Don't you just love Mr. Heavens to Betsy's (aka Eric) shirt?

Thanks so much for stopping by.  I'll have more to share in my next post.

Pug hugs :)

Maggie Class ~

 

No time to tell you about the class . . . sorry . . . but I must get ready for tomorrow's hook in.  I don't have a rug ready to hook, but need to gather up my rug and binding supplies. 

 

I just want to say the class was GREAT fun and I just have to show the progress on my wool pocket.  I'll share more when she's done.  (A wool pocket's gotta be a girl, right?)  Of course, the colors are so much better in person.

 

 

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Pug hugs :)
