Rug Hooking!

Because we don't have enough crafty hobbies in our lives.....

We learned how to rug hook last night with our fiber guild. I've been wanting to do this for years so I was very excited to finally learn. I loved it.

We were making Christmas ornaments. Any design that we wanted. The woman running the meeting provided the linen and wool. We just had to draw our design and bring a hoop and hook.

I LOVED it!!!!! Here are a few pictures of what we did. I made a Santa.










Next step is to cut them out, add a fabric backing and ribbon and hang on our trees!

Thank you to Debbie for leading us last night. I can't wait to make some more.

For anyone interested in the fiber guild, you can find out more on Shore Fiber Arts Guild website.
