Footstools
This month is full of opportunities to hook. Several of us spent Saturday at Orange Coast’s Hook In. Sandy, Jennie, Bonnie and Lynne enjoyed and learned a bunch from Lisanne Miller’s class. Some of us chose to sit and hook, enjoy each other’s company and beautiful work, invest in the vendor’s wares, and chat with friends we see only at an event such as this one.

Begun as a newsletter, “Rugger’s Roundtable” is an invaluable reference for anyone interested in rug hooking. In the introduction to the 5 year set, which spans 2006-2010, Jane described the collection as “a guide for the beautiful art of rug hooking. It is a source of instruction, color planning, dye methods ..read more
