Wake Up Day

Drew a last minute Dancing Rabbits pattern this morning and will stick it in the mail on my way out to rug camp.  Also cleaned up that rats nest which always occurs around the place where I hook so it will be clean when I return home from camp.  

I should be able to get all the background hooked by the end of today ~ hopefully.  Meanwhile this is what Blue Bowl of Flowers looks like now.
Am looking forward to seeing some friends and capture the thrill of rug camp again....maybe I'll have that once I get there. One thing for sure is that I'm excited to finally hook the sepia image of my mother as a youg woman.

MISC. CHIT CHAT

And it is related to rug hooking.  Was disappointed my ATHA magazine hasn't arrived yet because a friend told me a couple of my rugs are in the latest issue.   Thankfully Lauren (Rugs and Pugs) sent me a couple photos as she has received her magazine.  

Oh Glorious Day was hooked in a class with Kris Miller of Spruce Ridge Studios.  To say it was a fun class is an understatement.  But then all of her classes are fun and I always come away with a rug with great memories and color planning. 
Last March was so windy I needed to purchase W.Cushings Windy Day pattern to display each March and it is on my sofa table now.  As deer roam the woods around my house who wouldn't love to hook Winter Buddies, another pattern offered by Cushing.   Both of those were hooked at home without a teacher.
Finally after too many months of Covid lockdowns, masking, etc.  In
a November 2020 class under the guidance of Bev Conway I hooked New Year's Eve, a pattern offered by The Wool Farm.  I needed to welcome in a new year 2021.  Well we know how that year went too don't we.  
Nine more days and a wake up before I leave for rug camp in Ocean City, MD.  This year I'm staying at the Dunes Suites next door instead of the hotel.  And guess this will be the only camp I attend this year as I'm not going to Cape May this September after attending every year since 2003.

Happy hooking.
