It felt good to see Cape May and hooking pals again. I didn't go last year since there were no primitive teachers. This year was a BLAST! Was finally in Caroline Twigg's class (Eagles Nest Woolens) and will have her again November at Ocean City, MD. The class of eight (three had to drop out due to health or family emergency) made for a more intimate gathering.
Our class was in the 'dungeon' a name given by hookers since the room is dark and requires a lamp. But had we been in the dining hall with good lighting and other groups we probably wouldn't have felt free enough to laugh as we did. I took many photos so will have to show them in a few posts. Also have 'throw down' photos of rugs we started in class.
First rug from the show is a design by Theresa Kogut named Moon Dance and hooked by our classmate Leslie.
Another Halloween rug but cannot see who designed or hooked it. Since Halloween is just a few weeks away this will give you time to order a pattern and get in the Halloween spirit.
Below is a Karen Kahle design (Primitive Spirit) hooked by Shari.
Roberta also designed and hooked this blue ribbon winner of Elise.
Happy hooking.

Just wonderful rugs. Not usually a fan of geometric ones, but do like this one...but maybe because of the colors. LOL So glad you had fun, and agree you probably would not have had as much fun upstairs rather than the dungeon. Janice
ReplyDeleteActually the dungeon, as we call it, isn’t on the basement level but same level as the dining hall. We just call it that because it is dark.
Deletewonderful talent as aways at rug camp. You sound like you had just the best time!!! and so glad you are going to another one in November. It is good to a laugh out loud.

I'm glad that you had such a wonderful time of being with like minded rug hookers.
ReplyDeleteI bet you were the life of the party.
My favorite has to be that rooster. I have weakness for rooster rugs, primitive or traditional. I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of the rugs and the one you were working on. Tell us all about the ooos and awwws about your mother and fish rug.
Hugs, Julia
Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteWhat great rugs! I have always loved Lucille's chicken rug ;-)
ReplyDeleteSo when do we get to see your rug?
Dungeons can, indeed, be fun places. Love the rugs. I am certain this will surprise absolutely no one but, of course, my favorites are the Halloween ones...and the mermaids. Somethings never change. Glad you are back home safely. Enjoy your Sunday hooking. ~Robin~
