Everyone looks so cozy in your studio - a great place to spend the day with like minded people!
What a great way to spend the day and Karen's rug is wonderful.

Wow! I love that Gertie rug! What a fabulous job.... (not that I know how to hook a rug, but the colors are wonderful and the hooking looks perfect!!) I so wish I lived closer and could attend your classes....
Stitching in your happy chair with the woodstove going and your kitties at your side sounds like a perfect evening to me... Enjoy!!
Y'all have way too much fun! I wish I lived closer to have "way too much fun too" !
I wish I lived closer so I could attend your classes..Sad here in Pa...Everyone's work looks awesome and your husband what a dear he is..Have a great weekend..
Lori,
I wish there was a shortcut to VA From WI! What a thrill to be in the same room with all that talent! Oh my.. Pat's hooking of Gertie and your design.... how could it not be awesome!!
I love Karen's rug also... fabulous design, wide hooking and colors!
I want to make a basket too... sniff...sniff!
Even sweet Peter... if you could make a pattern for him and his blueberry corn bread... we have not the gentleman in WI who could hold a candle to such gallantry!
Hugs!
