Home from Ruth Lodge

Someday I will get the pictures where I want them, but in the mean time just enjoy them.






Love this purse.

Debbie's leaf rug is coming along and going to be lovely.















Yes we truly were at Rug Camp, but we had so much fun, Bev and Debbie danced a little for us.
Sharon the rabbit queen shared her rabbit named breeze with us.

We ate way to much food. We had some great meals. Wonderful salads and cakes. We even had mashed potato's and gravy one night. We had biscuits and gravy at breakfast one morning.










































Rabbit Queen even had her own ears.
And a ball hat with lights so she could read in the evening. From the laughter coming from that room no one was sleeping much.

We even had a lesson in Tai Chai, Joan I don't even know how to spell it let alone do it.

Trick or Treat

This is Miss Molly, one of Patty's pups. We had some cheese dip as you can see, served in little silver cups and Miss Molly got herself one some way and enjoyed it in my bag of wool.

The quilt block are from Linen Closet Quilts an online applique quilt we are doing. Mine is all wool on flannel, I think I am really going to like it.

Look at Debbie's cute squirrel and Bev's flower that fits into a black frame, both are just great with wonderful fall colors.














Then we have Sharon's pumpkin. She crochets with wool around the edges. It really has a neat effect.








Here is Sandy with the moose and mountains. She is a new hooker, and doing a great job.

Well, Monday we go to Ruth Lodge. Looking forward to seeing lots of rugs being hooked.
I will be gone for the week, unless I slip home to play with the puppy. He is high energy and has to be exercised to keep him focused and out of trouble.

Home again Finegan

The red lap quilt is for church, of course, and was a bag of pieces from a garage sale that were already pieced, there must have been 150 of them. I guess someone got tired of it before they finished.
So I will be making some more quilts probably with different borders.
Robin and Valerie were playing around after one of her(Valerie's) nights at Taekwondo. And yes she breaks those board without any problem.


It is always good to get home, but also hard to leave the city. I always get to go to so many interesting places to eat. This trip my favorite was Chocko's in Mission, Ks. I am sure it had something to do with their wonderful cinnamon rolls.

This is a quilt block I am making for a quilt online at Linen Closets Quilts. Excuse the pins.

I am also in the mist of getting ready to go to hooking camp for a week at Ruth Lodge here in Warsaw.
I will have lots of rug pictures to show you when I get back.

GONE


I am off to the city to visit my daughter and her family.
Will be back Tuesday. Plan to see some different quilt shop while I am gone. Unfortunately there are no rug hooking stores in her area.

until then

Hope Bubba Joe doesn't forget me while I'm gone.

New Fabric

We had lots of music on Saturday, and these guys were good, can you believe they were inside the shop playing and I don't even know their names.

Well, now blogger won't let me add any more pictures so I will try to add more tomorrow.




We have lots of new quilt fabric in at the shop.
Jo Morton, Renee Nanneman, Brannock and Patek, Thimbleberries, New Andover Blossom Lane by Renee, more Benartex.





Such pretty soft colors and I get the pleasure of making the sample quilt for the shop.
