My favorite show of the year has rolled around again: Rhinebeck, formally known as the New York State Sheep and Wool Festival. I'll be heading up the Hudson on Friday, enjoying the autumn colors along the bluffs. Here's the scoop: The Festival is held at the Dutchess County Fairgrounds, Saturday, October 19, 2013, 9 AM to 5 Pm, and Sunday, October 20, 2013, 10 AM to 5 PM. For more information, go to the website: New York Sheep and Wool Festival.
Barb and I will be in Building A, Booth 28, just like last year. Come and visit and see my just finished rug, The White Whale Tavern. I hooked this rug to look like an old trade sign, using 1 inch strips of fabric ripped by hand. The texture is amazing. I dyed up a new background color for this piece, which I call Blue Whale, and I'll have a few pieces available for purchase at the Festival.

*****hooked too tight...you need to skip three to four spaces between each loop. otherwise...very nice.
Can't wait to see it in person! Convinced hubby to go with me again this year...lol.
I love your Whale tavern sign rug. Great colors.
Have fun at the Sheep and Wool Festival.
Hugs,
