IT IS OVER FOR ANOTHER YEAR

I can't believe the Rug Hooking Retreat is over for another year!
Thanks to all to attended and also for the visitors we had on Wednesday!
I'm working to unpack everything and
and get it back on shelves!
This isn't such a bad job as I always
seem to find a special color of wool
that I just need to use.
Since I really didn't get to hook at camp
I'm ready to get hooking!
Enjoy the last couple days of July...........
Where did the summer go......

RUG HOOKING RETREAT STARTS

I can't believe it is July 18th already
which means
the Rug Hooking Retreat starts
tomorrow evening
at the Canyon Inn at McCormick's Creek, Indiana!
It will be great to see old friends
&
meet new ones!

And remember Wednesday July 22, is the
wool & pattern shopping day!
Anybody that wants to stop in
to see what everybody is working
on is welcome!
From 1-4 PM!

Hopefully I will remember my camera
and will post pictures when I return!

NEW DECK

Here is how we spent the last week or so.
Neil built the new deck and hung the swing he had made many years ago.
Here he is relaxing after about killing ourselves in 90 degree heat
to plant a bunch of new perennials and mulch!
How to find the perfect furniture to put out there.
And Neil has some more work on to do. Adding lattice and some other things.
This is a picture of the corner next to the mini barn.
The round ball is barb wire Neil rolled into the ball and I planted
lambs ear in it! It was a bit dangerous sticking my arm
in there to plant but the end results are good!
With less than a week until camp starts I'm feeling less stressed
than years past! What am I missing or forgetting? I'm NOT saying I'm ready .... I still have days to go!
Remember shopping day is Wednesday, July 22nd from 1-4!
