Do you still have your first rug you hooked?

Rug hooking Tuesday at the Country Loft

                                                Michele shared her second rug that she hooked
                                                 for the Renee Plains book.

One by one we all gather in our respective seats every two weeks to sit and share our hooking and what is our latest project were working on.Today as usual country loft was abuzz with our hooker group. One of the ladies suggested we bring in our first rug hooking that we ever did.So here is a short viewing of the ladies rugs.  I could not retrieve my rug since it was buried in one of the plastic boxes in the garage labeled Christmas. Lucky me! I couldn’t believe how well these hooking were compared to what I recalled of mine. So between talking to Donna about Atha biennial which she had a wonderful time and catching up on all the other ladies I didn’t get much hooking done. One good thing my turkey rug is ready for the binding Thank goodness!

I was so busy last week with Christmas projects I didn‘t blog much. I do best when it’s crunch time so it‘s crunch time now. I have to get a lot done before Christmas. That baby stocking is really hard to make since there are all these little beads and stuff. It’s a challenge one bead at a time! I can’t believe my mother in law made all the other stockings for us being blind in one eye. How amazing !
Jan was busy looking at the new Book that Donna brought back from Atha biennial . What an interesting book. I need to order one soon.
 We had some wonderful rainy weather in southern California so I was able to have my wood burning stove going finally! It was hooking weather. This weekend it’s suppose to rain again.I am so thankful since I need to keep focused on my projects if I want to get them all done by Christmas.
