I share my thoughts and upcomings here.

Tools For Rug Hooking

On my blue table we have: the hook, scissors and cutter. The hook has a nice wide handle and large hook for wide cuts. The scissors are bent to make it easier to cut the wool from the top. Last but not least, the cutter. This baby can cut three strips at a time.

Spotted Cow

The kids and I stopped by Harvest Gallery to exchange some rugs and the Spotted Cow was one of the rugs that is back home. I made this in 2008 and an image of this cow is on my business card as I am quite fond of him and..well, I have to admit.. I am […]

Nice day to take your fish for a walk. SOLD

The sky is a bit different for me…but I was trying to be brave and I am happy with how it turned out. I would ordinarily do circles for a sky but I wanted it to look a tad stormy, so made it more swirly. What is next? May start work on a Titanic rug […]
