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.

Girl in Chaos
This is another “old” rug we picked up from Harvest Gallery. With her hands on her hips, she is wondering how she is going to tackle the mess. A very nice “fan” of mine once suggested I take shots of my rugs in their natural habitat….on the wall. ..and so I did. Here she is […]

Ballerina
