Old Time Rug Hooking Retreat....

The 2nd week retreat hosted by Pam Skinner was held in Eureka Springs,Ar in Jan.

the new group of hookers moved in on Saturday.

Had a great group of ladies and I love meeting new hookers.

Aileen Anderson with "Bear Creek Rugs" was one of the vender.

Everyone was very happy to be there.

Here you see the venders that were there.

I think this rug was finished at the retreat.

There was some great rugs at the show.

Finished at retreat.

I love them all!

This too was finished there.

This rug was started by an fine hooker from up north.She died and her family gave it to Ella and she asked my to finish it.It will go to a good home.

Very cute.

This rug was finished there too.

This rug was being worked on by a very sweet lady that I meet for the first time.

Tuesday was a open day for people to come look at the rugs.Here are some local ladies that stopped by.One of them is a hooker and I think the others want to learn.

 

Thank you Pam for all your hard work, you did great.

Live Deeply and go play with some wool.

Rug hookers hit Eureka Springs in Jan. for a retreat put on by Laura Moore.

I was not part of the retreat but I had to stop by and see everyone.As you can see hooking is not the only thing that goes on at this event. Lots and lots of talking happens too.

Tuesday is always a open day that anyone can come and hook.There is a rug show too.

Lots of fun rugs!

This rug is turning out so cute.

A hard working girl.

I  am not sure who brought this wine, but you got to love the label.

Beautiful!

Bev and Sue having a good talk.

Janice is thinking very hard about something.

Love the sunset.

Look at all the stuff a hooker brings with her.

Love,Love,Love both of these.

Linda, hard at work.

Makes me want to go to Turkey Hill.

This rug is so fun!

One more great rug.

   I think all the ladies had a great time and I would like to say" thank you" to Laura for letting me pop in and out.


More to come as this year there was two retreats. I was part of number two retreat so I can tell you more about it.
