Most of these were created in my early years of hooking. I've been hooking about 10 1/2 years now. Wow, time flies. After hundreds of rugs, these still make me smile. Happy Halloween to you!<br />

They hook up fast as the hooked size is roughly 9" x 6" and instructions on how to mount the hooked piece onto the board is supplied in the kit. All you need to add is wool of your choice (scraps work really well for these projects) and glue and black paint (optional). <br />

<br />
Things such as a move to a new home last March, followed by house renovations, a month abroad in Europe last June, a lovely visit for two weeks with our granddaughter in July and other small matters made both blogging and hooking hard to do. <br />
<br />
I actually did not hook for nine months because of so many projects and excursions. Then, dear Margie from Dallas came to visit me in August to hook primitive style with me for a week and my appetite for hooking was reignited.<br /><br />
While Margie was here I hooked the Magdalena rug below as an example for show and tell for a one day class I gave on Magdalena's style of hooking at my local rug hooking guild. <br />

I used a Wool Mat Finish with Doo Dad Decoration to bind this rug; this finish is included in a booklet I self published last fall on rug finishing techniques. The first edition of the booklet is nearly sold out and more are on order; I will update the blog to let you know as soon as I have more booklets available in my Etsy shop. It will probably take about three weeks; I had no idea they would fly out of the shop as they have, but I do THANK YOU!!!<br /></div>

On top of being busy and not blogging, the bigger issue the past several months was that I got locked out of Blogger and could not get back in. I hope, I think, I may have that issue under control now! We shall see if this blog post gets published. Here goes, I'm hitting the publish button now! <br />

<b></b><i></i><u></u><sub></sub><sup></sup><strike></strike>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5634288068206279376.post-11479241641148352982015-02-12T08:52:00.000-08:002015-02-12T08:52:19.715-08:00A Wilted Yellow RoseOh, so sad, so very sad to report the reality that the Yellow Rose Rug Camp held in Belton TX appears to be a total goner. This is a real loss for a camp that was a great success from 2008 until this year. <br />
<br />
The camp director has avoided communication with anyone trying to reach her. Summers Mill retreat center reports it dropped the camp from its March dates due to non-payment of facility fees, overdue months ago. The space has been re-booked for another venue.<br /><br />Law enforcement resources verify the camp director is still alive (they did a welfare check); she's still going to work and receiving mail at her home. Because the final date for camp has not yet come and gone, they cannot take action yet on behalf of campers' trying to recoup their funds. If the camp director returns funds by March 15th, we all forget this ever happened. <br />
<br />
Just two days ago I received an email from one of my students asking why she hadn't heard from me to discuss her project with camp only a few weeks away? It's because I, along with no one else, have a contact list of campers to inform them of what is going on. This was a complete shock to the student. She is not in the mainstream hooking groups in TX that are "discussing" this issue.<br />
<br />
Campers are wondering how to get their money back and this amounts to $690 for my husband. His check was cashed in March 2014. This is not a pretty situation, but I'm especially relieved we didn't book airfare to TX for the March camp. When non-communication from the camp director became an obvious issue, I held off on booking airfare. To point out the seriousness of the airfare cost issue -- in past years some campers came from as far away as Nova Scotia; I hope no one has incurred airfare costs on top of their camp fees.<br />
<br />
<b><u><i>On to a POSITIVE note from Texas:</i></u></b> <br />
Charlotte from TX sent me this picture of her completed "Puttin' on the Ritz" rug that she worked on in class in Fredericksburg TX last September. She turned the pattern into a fun pillow. Didn't she do a great job?!!!<br />

Best wishes to all!Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5634288068206279376.post-42832250112567066962015-01-28T09:54:00.001-08:002015-01-28T09:54:13.715-08:00Yellow Rose Rug Camp????Hello to All,<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Yes, I am a poor blogger and for a long time now I've been quiet. I've had good reasons, if you read the post previous to this one. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I am trying to get back into the world of hooking and the most pressing matter is:</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b><i>Is Yellow Rose Rug Camp <br />really going to take place in March? </i></b> </span></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The status of Yellow Rose Rug Camp in Texas is a huge mystery right now. I am supposed to be teaching at Yellow Rose but I've received no class roster and my efforts to text, email and telephone the camp director result in no response from her.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Students who signed up for my class are emailing me to ask me what is going on? I wish I knew what is going on, but I have no more information than others seeking answers.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Contacts in Texas tell me no one is hearing back from the camp director .... no return communication to emails, text messages or phone calls. It is very disheartening. If you signed up to be in my class, please email me at briarwoodfolkart@surewest.net and we can do some advance planning, but honestly, contacts in Texas think the camp will likely not take place.<br />
<br /></div>
<div>
I hope for the best, but we are only 6 weeks out from camp and nothing is happening to confirm there will be a camp. If you know anything more about this issue please email me. <br />
<br />
Ending on a positive note, look at this cutie by Deb McCullough: Labs in the Garden from a pattern and kit I put together for Deb. Isn't it a happy rug? I love it. Good work Deb!!!</div>

This fun picture of Daisy on a rug in
progress was sent to me by Lori in New York. It pretty much sums up my
relationship with hooking lately: it's still close to my heart but I
haven't felt motivated to be creative and I'd rather just lie around.<span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
On November 1st my dear, sweet Mother passed away. Before
she died we faced many weeks of complicated health challenges. Closing in
on age 94, my Mother had a good run. She was a trooper. She never
complained as her little body slowly gave out and macular degeneration darkened
her world over the last 10 years. <br />
<br />
I miss her terribly and I am trying to
find my spirit again. She was a best friend and a huge light in my life.
I treasure the fact I had a mother who was kind, loving, adoring and
giving. How lucky can you get? What a gift I had all these years
and will continue to have in my memories of her.</div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;">
I know my spirit will return and time is a
healing factor, but right now I'm in the midst of a long winter of the spirit.
I hope your days are brighter!<o:p></o:p></div>

that are glorious and bright and may all your dreams come true. Happy Holidays
and Happy New Year.</b><o:p></o:p><br />

A slice of heaven, yes that's what it was: Two Stars in TX Rug Camp Fredericksburg, 2014. <br />
<br />
Back in the great state of Texas, I was honored to teach my love of folk art style rugs this past week. The ladies in my class were awesome. Seems I always have that luck when I teach. Good folks, those hookers!<br /><br />This camp is now directed by Tricia Travis and Gayle Soileau and was formerly called the Star of Texas. Tricia and Gayle have stepped up to offer a great camp experience. <br />
<br />
I feel right at home in Texas offering a glimpse into my world of rug hooking. Accepted for my primitive style, my non-traditional finishes and quirky hooking, Texas feels like "coming home" to rug hooking. <br /><br />

I will post pictures of the rug show and throw-down next, plus another fun camp surprise.Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5634288068206279376.post-53333565664709841382014-08-02T13:32:00.002-07:002014-08-02T13:32:57.750-07:00Too much fun?Can a girl have too much fun (with something else) that she's "off" from rug hooking? Hard to believe, but yes I've been on a fun sabbatical that has made hooking suffer; but I'm working my way back to my frame, hook, linen and wool.<br />
<br />
I've been missing in action because I found a fun niche of women in my neighborhood who also have a passion for paper arts and we've been playing in paper instead of wool in my neck of the woods (I still haven't found any hookers in my immediate community). I'm not posting pictures of my paper arts work yet, but it has kept me away from my first love: rug hooking. <br />
<br />
So to get back into a hooking groove, I'm posting some pictures of my most recent rug. This is the pattern I started at Cambria Pines Rug Camp in June. It is called "Birds, Bees and Honey Please." To mix it up a bit, I experimented with some trapunto (stuffing) techniques in this rug. It added a fun change in the overall appearance of the rug. <br />
<br />
Here is a good source for reading more about trapunto as it is used in quilting: <a href="http://www.museum.state.il.us/muslink/art/htmls/ks_tech_t.html">http://www.museum.state.il.us/muslink/art/htmls/ks_tech_t.html</a><br />

<br />
Now that our backyard is nearly complete in changes and additions and ready for summer, I'm spending the cool early mornings pondering in the yard, along with my iced coffee. This morning I was pondering the color green. There are no less than 20 variations of green I can easily spot from my perch near the pond.<br />

I will be leaving for Cambria Pines rug camp next Sunday and I'm pulling colors for my rug together in my mind before I go into the studio to ravage through piles of wool. Green was on my mind this morning.....as in what colors of green I'll use for leaves in the pattern I'll work on at camp. <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

It's just a little fun pattern, but I will of course want an aged old look, so the greens must not be too bright. But wool is one thing and nature is another, and I could not help but marvel at the variety of green tones as I sipped my iced coffee.</div>

Rug hooking has certainly made me view green in a different light and to take note of it in nature. I think green is a hard color to work with in rugs. Do you go yellow green, blue green, gray green, dark green, light green, bright green, dull green? Do you mix all of these possibilities together? Nature certainly mixes it up with wild abandon, and ultimately she probably knows best. Yes, green can be a challenge. But a lovely one at that! Have a great green day!</div>

After going to camp in March I fell off the wagon. Household projects got in the way and then we transitioned into doing backyard projects so we can enjoy our patio area to the maximum this summer. <br />
<br />
When we moved here in February '13, we inherited a nice yard for what is called an "interior" lot in the community. That means you are surrounded by neighbors side by side and in the back. Other homes have a golf course view or a nature area view, but those lots fetch a pretty price. We felt this house had a lot going for it in the backyard and future improvements would be minimal (ha, were we wrong on that note!). We have an extensive waterfall system with koi pond which is the central visual feature. <br />
The biggest drawback is that our yard gets 100% sun all day long with a south-west exposure. Shade is at a premium late in the day and with our hot summers (dry heat....not humid heat!) it's hard to use the yard for entertaining. We've embarked on several projects to help create shade, to the degree we can.<br />

Well I guess we all know there is more to life than just hooking, so now you know why I've been off the wagon. <br />

Yes, I've been on a hiatus and missing in action..... again! Thanks to those of you who have emailed and asked if I'm OK. I appreciate your concern about my silence.<br />
<br />
We were at rug camp in Texas in early March for the Yellow Rose Camp (<a href="https://www.facebook.com/RugCamp" style="line-height: 115%;">https://www.facebook.com/RugCamp</a><span style="line-height: 115%;"> or
</span><a href="http://www.yellowroserugcamp.com/" style="line-height: 115%;">http://www.yellowroserugcamp.com/</a>) and once home, we immediately launched into some household renovations in two rooms here at he house. These projects consumed a lot of time and energy and I've been out of the hooking loop for several weeks due to other priorities. <br />
<br />
Here are some pic's from Yellow Rose and my apology for not being able to identify each rug hooker with their respective rug:<br />

I need to bind the rug and block it a bit more, but the main hooking is finished.<br />

I am very pleased with this stately sheep. He is quite the new gent in my house, and he may be replacing my Big Dog Hollow rug over the fireplace, which is some big shoes to fill. Or should I say big paws to fill.<br />

<br />For fun, I worked up the sheep in Photoshop to give him a chance to potentially unseat Big Dog. The wall is actually a deeper rust color than it shows in photos. It comes out sort of orange due to camera flash.<br />

Hmmm, I think the sheep may win me over. I like the light color of the sheep with the fireplace. Someday I hope to distress the fireplace a bit, to give the carving on it some depth. But the sheep is good in this location, yes?<br />
<br />
I got so enamored with hooking the Frost sheep I had to do another little one from scraps; see the same colors as the big sheep rug? Why not use up the scraps? So this little guy hopped onto and off of my frame this week as a small project. He is about 13 x 12" and oh so sweet.<br />

I'm in the throes of getting ready to head to rug camp. I changed my mind (what a surprise) and have adjusted the pattern I'm taking. I'm still going with the peacocks but the border design is different and one where I can practice a continuing love affair with hit and miss hooking. This colorized version is a mock-up for fleshing out the pattern; I cannot achieve the true colors I'm planning to use with my Photoshop skills.<br />

<br />
This pattern is an antique rug adaption. Linda brought lots of color to the pattern and her bears are toasting cans of Coke vs. bear (oops, beer) steins. Isn't all the use of color fun in this rug? It is very joyful.<br />

Linda is about the fastest hooker I've ever met and she had the bear rug finished by the 3rd day of class. She went on to finishing up this rug, a variation of my Gazing at the Milkey Bones pattern where I customized the pattern to include her two dogs. Are these doggies sweet or what?<br />

<br />This rug gave us a real challenge: how to hook a night time sky with a black dog in the rug. I dyed a painted sky of sorts for Linda to give it an evening look but light enough that the black dog shows up. This is such a sweet rug. Too bad they aren't real bones as these cuties look pretty hungry and appreciative of the bones filling the night sky.<br />
<br />

This recent drawing flurry is based on going to Yellow Rose Rug Camp in Salado TX in a few weeks and I want to have my class project ready to go.<br />
<br />
I've been in love with this peacock for a long time, influenced by an antique rug. I began designing some patterns around the peacock about two years ago, but other projects got in the way of this bird making it onto my frame. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
Focusing on a camp project has led to this design:<br />

This rug is a precursor to a larger scale rug with the peacocks. I have a special wall in my living room for a larger rug where I want to put the peacocks among a floral menagerie. That design will be about 40" x 32" but that's only a guesstimate on the eventual size. I've got to get this smaller peacock rug finished first.<br />
<br />
The E.S. Frost sheep is coming along, but the triangles are not calling my name for long bouts of hooking. This is the tedious part, but it will be worth it in the end. I hope to have this rug ready to take to Yellow Rose for the rug show. I do love this rug; it's a keeper.<br />

Elizabeth's use of limited colors is very effective in this rug along with a Magdalena style leaf (hit and miss) and the frame of hit and miss around the rug.<br />

days. I never received a call. Bill took me to the Fair
today and our last stop was at the exhibition of the Art Work.
To my astonishment, and I mean I was totally astonished, I not only
won First, but won First in Class and First in Show. I just stood there
with my mouth wide open and tears streaming down. Since coming home, I
keep pinching myself. </b></i><b><i>Lor</i></b><i><b>, could we ever have thunk

On another note, an amazing fact about Sandi's rug is that it is a very small rug; if my memory is correct, it is only about 13"x13" in size. Sandy was hooking with what I recall to be a 5-6 cut and achieved amazing detail in her tiny rug full of many motifs. </div>

FROST SHEEP WITH BIRDS AND FLOWERS</b>, an original design by Edward Sands Frost and drawn by Saundra from Woodland Junction. You can order this pattern here: <a href="http://www.woodlandjunctionprimitives.com/patterns.htm" style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;">http://www.woodlandjunctionprimitives.com/patterns.htm</a>. It is a wonderful sheep pattern and fun to hook because of the intricacies of the design and border.<br />
<br />
If you are not familiar with E.S. Frost you can Google his name to read about his fascinating contribution to the world of rug hooking. He holds a remarkable place in rug hooking history so please get to know him if you aren't already familiar with Mr. Frost.<br />

<br />
Don't you just hate chicken shit people? People who find some reason to criticize you no matter what you do? Take my cyber acquaintance "Anonymous" who is someone too chicken shit to use a real name. He/she loves to send me negative, critical and mean comments. For the life of me, why does someone who can't stand me even read my blog? Isn't that a crackup?! Keep reading "Anonymous" so I can help raise your blood pressure. Go for it "Anonymous" so you can harden your arteries and become even more cranky.<br />
<br />
"Anonymous" loves to get in a twit about something and make snide and cruel comments to my blog posts. Pathetic you say? Yes. Well "Anonymous" read this: go suck on a rotten egg and stop reading my blog while you are at it. <br />
<br />
So "Anonymous" emails me and chastises me for not giving E.S. Frost credit for the Mr. Baaa rug I am hooking. I guess "Anonymous" can't read very well - <b><u>as in reading the first post on this hooking adventure</u></b> - where I identified this pattern originating from E.S. Frost. <br />
<br />
My deepest wish for "Anonymous" - get a life. And you are a bully too, and that's a pathetic standing, wouldn't you say?<br />

That's the sheep's name so far. It may change, but for now it's Mr. Baaaa.<br />
<br />
I love the antique black background mix surrounding Mr. Baaaa. It sets him off so well and when you are close to the rug, looking at the mix of different wool textures is so interesting. <br />
<br />
As I mentioned in the last post, the antique black mix is made up of many various wool strips. Out of curiosity, I pulled a variety of strips from my big bag of worms that I use for the antique black background to examine the mix more carefully. I easily found 20 different strips that comprise the background. They blend together well if you use short bursts of each strip. In hooking a space of two square inches there may be 5-8 different wool strips due to hooking just a few loops of each strip of wool.<br />
<br />
Here are some pictures of the mixture but the camera flash distorts the actual color. They appear quite dark in person, verging on black, but not true black.<br />

By tinkering, I mean reworking parts of a rug as I hook the pattern. I do this quite a bit; more than I'd like to admit.<br />
<br />
I was loving my sheep, but I wasn't totally loving my brown background. It wasn't making my heart sing. I decided to pull a bunch of the brown background and get out my very large collection of dark worms for an antique black background. I proceeded to hook a large portion to the left of the sheep to decide if the antique black won out over the brown.<br />
<br />
When I talk antique black, it's not really, really black. Yes there is some black in the mix, but it's more like 25 different types of dark wool that is truly dark brown to black. My mix includes all kinds of wool. Some is teal, some is dark olive green, some is tweed, some is nearly straight black or brown and a lot of it is a texture that has brown, black, blue, red or gold running through it.<br />
<br />

I'm liking the antique black. It's staying in the rug. It is very rich and interesting. I'll take some closeups of it when I get back to hooking more of it. <br />

Back enjoying a rug that I'm working on. This little Baa guy is great fun. At least for now. I can't say I'm going to be singing the same praises once I get to all those triangle pieces around the border. Oh no, I imagine I'll be moaning and groaning from tedious hooking by then!<br />
<br />
Here's the E.S. Frost sheep in progress. I'm really enjoying this guy!<br />

The facial part was a bit of a challenge to workout to give the piece a face without a dark bold look. Just a hint of a face from a distance to create a worn, aged, faded look. <br />

Yes that's me for the past couple months. Somehow I haven't felt like "yakking" through my blog. So I'm trying to find my voice again, slowly but surely.<br />
<br />
Maybe it was the holidays approaching, or the ending of another year. Maybe it's because my mother's health has been deteriorating more and more these past couple months. I can't quite say why, but I've been quieter than usual.<br />
<br />
I haven't been hooking much either. A bit here and there when my hooking circles meet. I haven't felt any great inspiration lately, but I am trying to gear up to work on this lovely antique adaption of the E.S. Frost sheep:<br />

Saundra from Woodland Junction draws up this antique rendition. Saundra and I traded patterns last year; she sent me this sheep pattern for my Big Dog Hollow pattern. I hope to be starting this rug soon as a way to get back into FUN and INSPIRING hooking. I'll post pictures as I hook along.<br />
<br />
I hope you all had a happy and healthy holiday season. My Tuesday hooking pals were over to my house in December to see my numerous Christmas collections and give a little holiday cheer. Here they are, hooking along in my family room. What a great bunch of women.<br />

<br />
Diversity in preferences, styles, techniques, approaches to planning, intuition, spontaneity, execution ...... all of these words describe rug hooking and the elements that go into hooking a rug. Here are some pic's of diversity among some of the great women I know:<br />
<br />
My friend Betty, a fine cut artist. Surely this rug is Celebrations bound (and Betty has been in Celebrations several times). <br />

This was about a two year effort. And in-between working on this masterpiece, can you believe I played a part in getting our Betty, our Ms. 3 and 4 cut, to hook two (yes two!) Magdalena style rugs too!!!!!</div>

Donna's rug finished from the Canadian class I taught in September. What a fun rug and Donna and Loretta (Hooked on the Lake - link on the right under blogs) finished this rug off with a braid. A perfect finish. Donna took the approach in true antiquey style of hooking this rug in pronounced directional hooking.<br />

And Moi? Well I've been quiet lately, and thank you to all who have emailed me to say: "What's the matter? You're too quiet!" I've just been in a quiet space for several weeks and not doing very much hooking. </div>

Here's a little rug I finished a couple weeks ago as part of my little scrappy pattern series. I didn't even draw straight lines for this little mat, in an effort to make it old and funky looking. But the fringe seems to hide these intentional imperfections.</div>
