This afternoon DH and I rode through part of the county that was hit by a tornado last week. It was extremely devastating, and one of our friends had considerable damage to her property. Thankfully she and her animals are safe. In fact, despite all of the property damage, no one was hurt.
Tomorrow is my monthly all day rug hooking day. Two friends and I will leave at 7:45 a.m. and drive the 2 hr. drive to Athens for a 4 hr. class with Eric Sandberg, a nationally known teacher. We are working on wide cut Persians, and mine is an Azerian, which is a folk story rug. Afterwards we will go to our Hooking Guild for an afternoon and evening of hooking along with a pot luck dinner. We won't get home until around 10 p.m. It is a great day, and I always look forward to it. I will work on binding my sister's rug at the Guild hooking time. I should have finished it by Christmas, but life got in the way. I am posting a photo of the rug, "Primitive Baskets" by Karen Kahle. She is one of my favorite hookers and designers. This rug was lots of fun to hook, and I busted stash doing it...........all of the wool, which is mostly #8 cut, is leftover from previous projects!
Off to bed now.
