| May Blooms |
The lovely colors of May. Then there is WV by evening with the thunder and rain.

When Life brings Laughter
Rug makers utilize magnets to hold their hooks and scissors on their frames. One of the favorite people in my life just started to rug hook and purchased a set of the covered magnets. Placing them in the bottom of her pocketbook for safe keeping. Later as we were leaving a restaurant, (that begins with a Cracker and ends in Barrel) the smiling eyed hostess stops us....a knife was swinging from the bottom of her pocketbook! Ok, she couldn't see it, therefore had no idea why we were laughing with tears streaming.
.........................................................Open House at Cedar Lakes Rug Camp
The rug show at Cedar Lakes was wonderful. All those lovely colors and the different ways they were used to make rug art! We enjoyed visiting two of the instructors classes, and next year both my sister and I will be in one of those classes! It will be her first camp and though a year away, she is looking forward to attending.
.................................................................................................................
The Buckeye Rug Hooking Guild will hold their Spring Weekend soon. Two instructors will be there and we had our choice. The instructor that I chose just happened to have a hand in making my favorite rug frame :O)
There will be three gals in my room and we are going to be so well behaved ;o) Sure!!!
The pattern above has been transferred to the rug warp as of today. Using small dots to show where the major shading will be, and having the actual photo enlarged and in front of me will add to that. Next will be a visit to my wool material stash to select some colors. Listening to the instructor whether it is concerning my rug, or others is a valuable way to learn. Have your questions ready for your teacher concerning your rugs, plus input from your ideas combined to make whatever you are working on yours!

Prayers to those who are struggling.
Rug Hooking Fact: cat hairs only add strength to your rug hooking!
Rug hook happy,
