I hook rugs, I knit and I have a life - not always in that order. Hooking rugs in the traditional way is a passion. Knitting is a way of keeping those idle hands busy. In my life, I am a mother, partner, sister,aunt, friend and a happy grammy. I work with volunteers and seniors when I'm not doing those other things. I enjoy being creative - and often reinvent the wheel. Above all, I value things that are not only beautiful but useful.

Snail's pace
This rug is taking so-o long to get anywhere. Not the rug's fault - it's mine. I get so busy with other stuff that I can't seem to find enough time to settle down. So, Sunday I concentrated really hard and got the rest of green field done. Then I cut about half the strips I'll need for the hit-and-miss background. You can see the beginnings in the upper right. I just had to start it to see how it was going to look. I'm pretty happy with it now so more will just be more happiness.
