Thanksgiving Travels

Beautiful drive to and from Halifax this weekend to my daughters for Thanksgiving.  My daughter Jenna served up her first Thanksgiving Supper and it was wonderful.  So much to be thankful for, my wonderful family and friends, rug hooking community this beautiful country we live in to name a few.

I haven't worked any more on my 'waves of creativity' landscape rug by Periwinkle Laine since I got home from their retreat on PEI.  Below photo of my rug thus far.


Visiting Wool Shops & PEI Retreat

I own a wool shop but that doesn't mean I can't visit other wool shops.  Two very good wool shops I had the pleasure of visiting this week, Encompassing Designs (Mahone Bay) and River house (Petite Riviere) Studio's.  A group of us, including the Roadies, decided to venture down the south shore of Nova Scotia.  We stayed the night in Bridgewater and had a wonderful time.  We will have to make this an annual event.  Tons of laughter!

A few pictures from our adventure.

Rug Hooking Retreats

Fall is in full swing.  Love all the beautiful colours of our trees, soon they will be all gone.  I was privileged to attend another PEI rug hooking retreat last week.  Great bunch of ladies!  A few pictures of our week.

Above left to right, Joel, Barb, Lynne, Bev, and Della.

Lots of rugs completed during the retreat, see below.

Fall and Hook-Ins

It is that time of year, lots of hook-ins, and gatherings.  I was privileged to vend last week in Northport.  Thanks so much to my family, friends and customers for supporting my business.  Your continued support means everything to me. A few pictures from the hook-in below.

Busy Times

It has been so lovely to see an increase in foot traffic to my studio this past week.  Did I remember to take any photos? No!  There were people come from as far away as Atlanta, Georgia.

I attended a two day rug hooking course with Jane Steele (River House Studio) this week.  Monochromatic with a pop of colour. A few pictures below of some of the gang who attended and Jane's lovely rugs.  We had a great few days!
