Picture of the class at Podikory Yacht Club

 This is a group picture of my class at the local yacht club. We had lots of fun. Scroll down to see some of the projects started in this class.

Great class

Ginny Fan worked on an exquisite fine cut Iris rug. She had 8 values for all the flowers. We fingered and cross-swatched all week!  I expect this rug will not be a UFO!

Great Class

Sue Green from the eastern shore designed her own wall-hanging. This is heavily prodded and it was gorgeous. I can't wait to see the finished piece.

Great Class

This is the new "Close-Up Design of Gladiolas. It is available on my web site www.rugandwool.com. Tassee Mariani is hooking it in gorgeous purples and red-violets surrounded by a light background.

Great Class at the Podikory Yacht Club!

Mary Lou Bleakley was working on a very difficult  three cut wall hanging of an incredible garden she photographed when traveling in South America. We had fun planting roses and foxgloves in wool. I got her to pixelate!!!!

Great Class at the Podikory Yacht Club in Annapolis

This is Pam Brune working on one of my new "Close-up" designs of poppies and daisies!   She  chose peach poppies and a blue-violet background. This rug is fast and I think Pam will be finished in a few weeks!   The rug is about 52" by 48"

Spring and Easter on the Way

 I Love this time of year. My husband, Don is a master gardener and these daffodils are only three of the  three hundred coming up in our yard!  

This is a little reflection on the season. I am a  member of the Association for Research and Enlightenment. This is a foundation established by Edgar Cayce.   One of EdgarCayce's many lessons was the following and seems appropriate for the season.

" Criticize not unless you wish to be criticized. For, with what measure you mete it is measured back to you again. It may not be the same way, but you cannot even think bad of another without it affecting you in a manner of a destructive nature. Think well of others, and if you cannot speak well of them don't speak! but don't think it either."

The Annapolis Fiber Project

 This is a very local message. The Annapolis Fiber Project is a group of fiber artists that have come together to form a collective. We will be offering classes at Maryland Hall for The Arts here in Annapolis  beginning this fall. Cynthia O'Neill  who specializes in knitting is the founder of the group. We still need  a few artists to join us in the quilting, embroidery, needlepoint, spinning, felting, paper and  beading   arts. If you have an interest visit the  web-site below  and contact Cynthia.     Watch for the fall catalog from Maryland Hall. Cynthia is offering a number of great knitting classes and I'll be doing a one day pictorial rug hooking workshop.                   http://www.theannapolisfiberproject.com/
