We're Back!

Things are starting to feel more like life before Covid for our Rug Hooking Group. The Wild West Rug Hookers were going to have Cynthia Norwood at a Camp last week but because of health reasons Cynthia couldn't make it. Several of the Rug Hookers that were coming to the Camp wanted to come to Cody anyway so we had a Hook-In instead. It was so wonderful being in a group again! 

I had all my soaps, candles, oils, and salves for sale while others brought frames to sell, hooks made by Craig Pearson, patterns we knew we would never get around to hooking, frame covers, and wool. For such short notice it turned out to be a very successful event. We are actually going to talk about having it once a year!

For the rug show we had a wonderful display of rugs! The pocket is from Jan Barnett and the stool and houses are from Barb Hagler.

Top left is Sylvia Gauthier, Hit and miss is Debra Inglis, Gnome Santa is Barb Hagler, Floral is Barb Pearson.

This rug by Peg Carpenter is even more stunning in real life.

Debra Inglis did the Hit and Miss, and the deer for a Challenge created by Catherine Butterick. The rugs everyone did for the Challenge will be in the next ATHA Magazine. Debra did the proddy edge Christmas pillow and Craig Pearson did the funky chickens.

The top floral was hooked by Barb Pearson and the bottom rug was hooked by Craig Pearson. They use fine cut and hook perfectly.

Santa Gnome is by Barb Hagler and the Sheep Patriotic Santa is by Jan Barnett. It was her second rug.

This lovely proddy pillow is by Barb Pearson. It has always been a favorite of mine.

Here again are the two from Debra Inglis. I may just have to hook the deer.

And this one is from Patty Tyrrell. 

Debra Inglis is far left from Clark Wyoming, front is Peg Carpenter, from Casper Wyoming, hooking behind her is Becky Newell, and standing is Jan Barnett.

From the left is the back of Patty Timm and the side of Catherine Butterick, Standing is Barb Pearson from Powell Wyoming, and Sylvia Gauthier is sitting from Cody Wyoming.

Left standing is Jan Barnett from Greybull WY, sitting is Becky Newell from North Dakota, with a corner of Barb Pearson's face, Barb Hagler from Billlings Montana, and Peg Carpenter from Casper Wyoming.

This is Patty Tyrrell. She took most of the pictures and she lives in Shell Wyoming.

Here we have Patty Timm from Idaho sitting with Buffalo Bill in front of the Historic Irma Hotel where she and Catherine were staying, as were several others.

This lovely lady is Catherine Butterick from Idaho. It was such a pleasure to meet her and Patty Timm from Idaho.

Barb Pearson was working on this handsome guy.

Patty Tyrrell was working on this handsome bunny.

Becky Newell was working on the Fruit of the Spirit. She changed up her pears later on.

This is what Sylvia Gauthier was working on using strictly worms.

Barb Hagler was working on this beautiful rug she got while spending the winter in Florida.

This stunning beauty is what Catherine Butterick was working on. 

Our beginner hooker Patty Timm was working on this adorable blue bird.

And Debra Inglis was working on this outstanding, HUGE runner from Sally Kallin, who will be teaching here in Cody next August! Email me at sylviaquilt@yahoo.com if you want more information for her class. 

We all had such a great time and we can't wait to see everyone next hook in and many will be at the Katie Hartner Camp August 25-28, 2021. We can fit in 3 more so email me if you want information.

I can't tell you how great it is to have something to post! I hope things are normalizing in other places as well.
