Hooking at Porter Library

We all got together at the Library last night to hook.  We have the BEST group of girls, period!  We had hot Minestrone soup and pumpkin cheesecake for dessert, yum!
Here are a few rugs to show you.....enjoy!

This is Carol's rug, always exciting to see what she's working on.  This is an antique rug design.  Look at the cool technique she used on the bird to add lots of demension.  LOVE IT!!



Karin just finished this rug, OH my, the colors are scrumptious as usual.  Great job Karin!


Holy Guacamole!  This is my Mom's rug, I think it speaks for itself.  Will keep you all posted on this baby!


This is Lauren's rug she's been working on.   I am so sorry that the blue floor takes away the true colors of this fantastic rug.  Lauren is hooking this lovely in a 9.5 cut.  I keep hinting around to her how I would really love to have a blade for my Townsend in this size,  lol.

From left to right, Arlene, Lauren, Deanna and Polly.....

  1. Lisa, it was good to see everyone again last night. We do have a nice talented group of girls!
    Lauren's rug sure is coming along great, and your momm's rug is absolutely beautiful. Carole always does something different to her rugs to make them special. We didn't get a picture of your pillow, have you been working on it today?
    Have a great day, Hugs

  2. Hi Karin,
    No I haven't worked on it yet today. I have been cleaning and doing laundry, my only day off and someone has to do it, lol. I hope to sit down tonight and work on it.

  6. I found your blog!! At first I had tons of guilt for not seeing it before, then I read further and realized I'm only a month or so behind. For me, that's not too bad!! First,let me say you're doing a great job. Love all the pictures! And second, your mom and I are doing the same rug, except she's 5,000 times further along! I'm hope to hook with you guys more often -- now that winter is here I should have more time.

  7. Hi Andrea,
    Glad you found me. We missed you the other night but hope to see more of you soon. I did make a comment on your blog about Mom hooking the same rug. Remember though, she is hooking in a nine and she is retired sooooo. Yours is coming along nicely, can't wait to see an update.
