A Really Nice Article & Slide Show

I just came across this really nicely written article by Jennifer Ackerman-Haywood in the Grand Rapids Press about a local rug hooker and her guild, Divas by the Dam. There's a slide show of rugs and a You Tube tutorial. Click here for the article.

I've been ridiculously busy lately, what with the house and life in general, but I'm hoping to get back to blogging soon . . .

American Folk Art Theme Update Today!


May Apple


American Folk Art has an update today. "May Apples" are the theme. I've needle-felted a sachet and listed it along with a hooked floral purse. Please visit -- there's lots of fine work by a variety of folk artist to peruse.
