Classes at 2012 NWA Hook-in.....

Friday we had four classes to kick off the NWA Hook-in for 2012. Seen here is Traci Wright, my baby sister taking the "Needle Felting on a rug"class taught by me.

 Itinia getting started on her felted bunny.

Here Leslie is working on a tail for her felted horse.

Linda may have got  to class late but she made up for it by working very fast to catch up.

Itinia was so funny, I gave her very sharp needle and then I was afraid for you fingers many times as she was felting.

This is Victoria Hart Ingalls class.I have one thing to say about Victoria " I love this lady!" She is a great teacher and I know everyone in her class had a great time.

Oh, Lynn, I know you are going to kill me for this picture. hehe ....

This is what the class was working on.Very cute. I got myself a kit too so I plan to make it soon.

Here you can see Janice and part of her class.Some how I did not get a picture of the pattern or the colors they used for this rug. But I can tell you "Beautiful".

Bonnie and Elinor are hard at work in Janice's class.

Here is Janet.

JoLynn,Rita and Marcia with Janice.

Aileen Anderson's class worked of backgrounds. Carol,Gwen and Susan had a full day on hooking.

Part Two of Eureka Springs Rug Camp with Wendy Miller.....

 Part two of camp with Wendy Miller was just a little quieter than part one, but not by much.I think all the ladies had a great time and are going to have beautiful rugs.

Linda was part of the first camp but her hubby called the second morning with chest pains so she left in a run.Everything was OK with him so she came back with him in tow.She finished class and he got a few days rest.

 These two pics are my rug. I really love how it is turning out.It is a very big rug!

 Betty from Springfield.

 Janet from Shell Knob,Mo. I wish the colors of the rug showed up better because it is beautiful.

 Diane from Hot Springs Village,Ar. This is a rug of her own design and I love it.

 Aileen from Hot Springs Village,Ar.

 Linda from Manon,Mo.

Joanie from Hot Springs Village,Ar.

 Linda from Mount Ida,Ar.

 Barbara from Jefferson,Ks.

 Wanda from Mount Ida,Ar.

 Bonnie from Jefferson,Mo.

 Nance from Clarena,Mo.

 Food is always a bug part of camp and here is some of the ladies setting down to dinner.

 This is the time we really get to know each other.What fun breaking bread together.

 By-the-way, this is from "Gumbo"night. For the ladies that have been here before, yes,I can cook gumbo with Adam.

  Martha from Coffeyville,Ks.

 Here Wendy is demoing something.For the life of me I remember with because I got busy taking pictures.I think it was a hit-or-miss border.

 More demoing.

 Georgia and Wanda hard at work.

 Miss Aileen working on her button jar.

I would like to say a GREAT BIG THANK YOU, to Wendy Miller for all her hard work for my camp here in Arkansas.Also to the lovely Linda that came with Wendy as her helper,we loved having you here and I am sorry I did not get a picture of you.

I am working on the next Camp and I will let you know when everything is set.

Rugs from Eureka Springs Rug Camp 2011

Sarah did a great rug of a peeping-tom being flashed by the lady of the house.

Bonnie's rug is looking so good.I am sorry about this first 4 pics, I had to use my phone.

Itinia's sheep is so cute and she got some of her flowers done.

If Cheryl had one more day I think she would have got this rug done.Cute,Cute,Cute.

Anita loves bright colors and she really hit it with this rug.I can't wait to see it finished.

Cock-a-doodle-do....Jody is going to town on her chicken rug.

Kathy was a beginner when she came to camp but she did a great job.I know she loved it and will keep on hooking.

Laura's sheep was smaller then all the others because she is making a tote bag from it.What a sweet little sheep.
Kate and Ella got rugs loaded up before I got pictures.Bad girls.

I hope everyone had a great time ,I know I did.It was very nice meet the new ladies and I hope they will come back to Eureka Springs Rug Camp sometime.

Aileen Anderson is a wonderful teacher and I want to thank her very much for working with me.


Live Deeply,
