Thank you to The Wool Street Journal

Have you seen the April 2008 issue of the Wool Street Journal? The cover features a Spruce Ridge Studios pattern called Mr. MacGregor, adapted from a design by Lori Brechlin from Notforgotten Farms. You can find it on my website by clicking on this link: Mr. MacGregor This cover version was hooked by Tina Ackermann. Isn't he handsome???

Here is my version of Mr. MacGregor. One of the reasons that I love rug hooking so much is that two people can hook the same pattern and you will get totally different interpretations. It's fun to compare Tina's dark background and my turquoise background...they both work wonderfully for this design.

Another Spruce Ridge Studios pattern was on the front cover of the January 2008 issue of The Wool Street Journal! Oh Glorious Day is another rug hooking pattern that is adapted from a Lori Brechlin/Notforgotten Farm note card. A perfect design to give you a BIG smile every day! You can find this pattern on my website by clicking on this link: Oh Glorious Day

This rug was hooked by Debbe Myers.
