It's official ... I'm a hooker (as in rug hooking)!!

I have joined a group of rug hookers, les Hookeuses du Bor'de'lo' in Shediac! My friend Marielle has pimped me (so to speak)!?!? I attended a meeting hier soir and showed off my portfolio of work (all of 2 rugs) ... my fellow hookers were quite impressed. I left the meeting with a project in hand that will be exhibited this coming summer in the Acadien Peninsula. I'll keep you posted as to how my project is progressing. This is a nice deviation from painting. I love working with different fabrics and the idea of using recycled clothing lends itself to being friendly to the environment ... all good!!
