Rug Stuff

Today I attended my monthly rug hooking meeting in SLC and while I was there I whipped the edge of the challenge rug I made for the Denver Hook-in which will be held May 19th. It just needs one more pressing and it'll be good to go! It measures 18" square.






Nancy has made quite a bit of progress on her rug since I saw it last month - she says it's so much fun to work on this because every day is a different motif & color. I love it!






Myra brought a new cabin/woods rug that she's started hooking - it will be a gift for her cousin. The bear and trees are looking great (in spite of the hassle her sons-in-law have given her) and I'm looking forward to seeing the ground and sky as they develop.






Fun day!

    Gayle, your rug turned out just so beautiful. It's time for me to resume hooking now that I'm finished quilting that big quilt.

    Thanks for sharing. JB

    Gayle your rug is beautiful! I don't think I've seen such bright colors in a rug before. It reminds me of a stained glass window.
