Celebrating the Season

 

My rug hooking guild, the Peconic Ruggers, celebrated the season today at the home of sisters Sally and Sue.  Their beautiful house, not far from the shores of Peconic Bay, was a wonderful place to spend the afternoon.  We have had  torrential rain and lots of wind all day, but who cares about gray skies when there's good company and good food around?

Sue and Sally had decorated for Christmas -- there were handcrafts and antiques throughout the house. I fell in love with this tree in the kitchen.

And how about this rug?  The border makes me smile . . . 

A sweet tableau on the sideboard.

Feasting.

Thanks to Sally and Sue for a great day, and to my fellow guild members for another year of crafting and companionship!
