Table rugs in progress. Lori LaBerge 2012 Hooking, whipping edges and embellishing the rugs still need to be completed.
This week I started work on
a series of table rugs which will measure approximately 9" X 12"
each. They would also look wonderful framed if one wishes. The rugs
will be created in a variety of colors and based on the same design. I also had the chance to do some dyeing this week:
Colors dyed for use on future table rugs.
The table rugs will be
embellished with metal so a trip to the hardware store was in order
to search for items to add to the rugs. When not at home, a good
place to find me is in the hardware or electrical section of Lowe's,
Home Depot or the local Trustworthy hardware store. I love those
places!
Items waiting to be scraped, cleaned, painted or used as is in work.
I had received an e-mail
from the editor of Rug Hooking magazine, Debra Smith, a while back
asking for permission to place my book in their "Good Reads"
section.
It is in the September/October issue and they did a wonderful
write-up on it. Information on ordering the book can be found here. As I was going through the issue, an article I really enjoyed was one by Diane Krys. She
combines knitting and rug hooking in a wonderful way and I can't wait to see more of her work.
Think about how you can
create different combinations in whatever your work, hobby or project
may be and have a great day.
