Rugs in Progress

Here are lots of pictures from the group I hook with on Wednesday nights at Simply Fibers. Above....Patti's dogs, Lily and Belle, sitting on her rug that is going in her new Florida home. We are sooooo going to miss Patti and her stories while she is away this fall and winter!
Above, Sheri from Shabby Sheep with her altered art rug hooking. I'm really wanting to try some of this....I have LOTS of transfered images that I'm wanting to work with.
Above, Lauren, Joan's daughter....our youngest rug hooker and quite a talent!
Above, Joan with a beautiful acorn and oak leaf rug that she is working on. Her color choices are stunning!
Above, Betty, working on a rug from Judy Cripps. It's BIG!
Above, Rita is working on a rug from Emma Lou. I just love the green pumpkin!
Above, JoLynne is working on a rug from Judy Cripps. She started this with Nola Heidbreder and it has chain stitching for the lines in the pumpkins.
Above, Rita is working ona colorful bird and flowers rug. I wish you could see the sculpting she is doing on this rug!
Above, Marsha is working on a nice primitive saltbox rug.

I'm so fortunate to be able to hook with this group every other week....they keep me and each other inspired!
Go forth and be creative,
Tammy

Joan's rug with the leaves and acorns is to die for. Would love to know the rug designer please. They are all wonderful. So fun to see such a beautiful blog.
