The Fun Is Done...For Now

The moon last night when we were on our way to dinner. 

Such a joyful time with really lovely people. 

It was the uncommon hook in. Led by our fearless leader Pam Bartlett. The teachers were Jonanne Page (my teacher), Brenda Anderson, Davey DeGraf, Jyl Blauvelt Robbins, Cyndy Duade. There was talent galore!

Three amazing days of inspiration. 

Great food and beautiful wool who could ask for more! Except for more time. 

I did not keep track of the names of the rug hooker or the pattern designer so very sorry. But just enjoy I will be posting more amazing work the next few days.

I could commute from home as I was 5 miles from the venue. My side kick Donna stayed with me which made it all the more fun!
Now back to reality.

That first snowman rug was sweet, and love the colors of the bright Halloween scene. Neither of which I'd hook as I don't need more seasonal rugs since I don't decorate much anyway. Heck, I'd only need one for each season.

Wow! There is some incredible work here. Glad you could go and have fun.
The moon is glorious!

Such amazing rug hookers. Each one was special in its own way. Glad you had fun and spent time with fellow hookers. Janice

I’m sure you and Donna had great fun times.
I have had Jyl as a teacher, but did not hook her plaid! A 3 cut…no thank you!
Looking forward to more rugs.

Beautiful moon! Beautiful rugs! Incredible talent on display. The lady with the fish has to be my favorite....but all the rest are a very close second LOL. How fun! And best part is you were so close and got to have a sleep over with your sidekick!

Happy late Halloween greetings! Those rugs are amazing! Of course, I love the Halloween one! I'm glad your hubby's surgery went well and now fingers crossed for good results! Have a good weekend Cathy!

I like the photo of the full moon in the clouds. I actually think the clouds make a better 'frame' for the moon than a perfectly clear sky.
So many lovely hooked pieces!
