Rug hookers here for a morning of handwork, chatting and inspiration. Warmed by the woodstove, fueled by pots of coffee. Rughooking is an eminently social hobby. |
Orchids thriving in the winter sun on the windowsill. A breath of loveliness against a snowy backdrop. Soon there will be tulips outdoors! |
Wintery sunrise |

An old wool skirt, deconstructed and ready to cut into strips for hooking the background of my latest rug hooking project. |
Two chickens and a barn. Lots of background to work here - the wool goes from skirt to dirt! |
Chicken pot-pie on a cold winter's evening, compliments of Anne. Vegetables from last summer's garden make a welcome re-appearance on the table. |
