Happy 4th of July . . . Just a Little Late

I'm a bit late with birthday wishes because we were too busy celebrating to even look at the computer.  We had a houseful for the weekend, with a big big cookout on Friday that was moved indoors, thanks to  Hurricane Arthur.  Saturday and Sunday were stellar days -- breezy blue skies and lots of sun.  We had a fabulous time -- lots of cooking and eating and swimming and clamming and fancy cocktails.  We loved having Clara home and our close friends here for the weekend.  Today is laundry day -- lots of sheets and beach towels to wash and dry.  In between I will sit and hook and take it easy. 

I hope everyone in the Maritimes are safe and dry today.  Looks like the hurricane caused a lot of power outages in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick.

Here's a question for all you rug hookers who like to dye.  One of my readers is looking for a source for Majik Carpet Dyes.  She's tried Rittemere-Hurst and hasn't received a reply.  Does anyone in the United States sell Majik Carpet?  Shoot me an email at pasileyrugs@gmail.com if you have a source.  Thanks.
