It felt good to be unpacked and in my pjs. I love going away but I really love coming home.
We stayed at the Hilton Garden inn, Freeport Me. Nancy our hostess did things up right. We had free Margarita night. And a 150.00 llbean door prize every day,and I won one yahoo!
This was my roommate's first primitive rug. She was loving it!
Here are a few of the rugs at the throw down. This is from a picture of the hooker and her sister when they were little.
I hope you can see the name tags on some of the rugs.
This is a Michelle Palmer pattern. Her patterns are so wonderful!
And this is my rug. I still need to fix the deer horns but it is almost done! I can't wait to move on.
There are always vendors at hook ins and I just had to have these warm wooly mittens. Made from recycled sweater. But other than that I didn't buy anything else.
And this is my partner in crime and roommate.

I have so much more to show you so please visit again soon.
Have a wonderful week!

love those mittens, they look so warm. Wow, great prize from LLBean. Thanks for the rug show and your rug turned out wonderful!!!
Looks and sounds like it was a wonderful hook-in. Congrats on the win! Your rug looks amazing! All of those fine cuts with the remarkable detail always catch my attention and sometimes I am almost tempted...but then I come to my senses. I was at a hooking workshop last week as well but I've nothing to show for it LOL. And we actually forgot to do a throw-down (we call it a "throw-up" because we usually hang the rugs on hanger thing in the room). I was a fish out of water of course...but it was fun to dwell amongst the true artists for a few days. ;-) Glad you beat the snow home. I love that quote you began the post with. So very, very, true and it captures that feeling of being away, having fun, and then finally coming "home" so well. ~Robin~
Your hook-in sounds like it was not only great fun, but very creative and how nice that you won one of the door prizes.
Love your rug, it makes me happy to read your blog ...thanks.
Sounds like you had a great time. I love those mittens! Have a good week!
