Summer Rug Hooking



For all you knitters I hope to post my summer knitting projects later in the week.  I did not get as much done as I hoped. I did finish a few sweaters,a cowl,and a scarf.  Some need a finishing wash or need to be sewn together. Back in June my sister,daughter, and I took a rug hooking class at Camp Wool in a shop in downtown Kennebunk, Maine.  The owner Lee Ann taught the class and we had a great time .  It was such a fun day.  I have been working on my rug all summer and now doing the background.  I hope to turn it into a pillow.  I found out my area of Maine (midcoast) is where rug hooking started in America.  It is now the epicenter for rug hooking.
I spent part of today doing homework for my art class.  My husband made dinner so it has been a nice Labor Day for me.
Below pictures of my rug.
