rug hooking


At heart I am a rug hooker. I Love the whole process of hooking. I really enjoy thrifting to find old wool clothing that I can use in my rugs. The plaid,pleated skirts are the best! lots of yardage.
I know there are purest out there that only new wool will do. But truly in the tradition of rug hooking this is how it was started. from worn out clothing to rug. I have tried a lot of crafts and still trying a lot but when I look at a hand hooked rug my heart sings.
on another note I posted for the first time to a blog of course I want to win the fab apron. But her blog is sweet and a joy to read check her out (plus she has a great name) www.fromcathywithlove.blogspot.com
