Rug Hooking; the art of pulling wool strips or yarn through canvas with a type of modified crochet hook. Mary, my newly addicted hooking friend says 'Hooker; one who hooks rugs.................Stripper; one who cuts wool fabric for hooking'. Doesn't it sound like fun!

Everyone I know who tries it becomes addicted to the art, including myself. So I follow a long line of talented women who have been stripping and hooking for decades. I decided to take a contemporary approach to my designs, firstly because I love bright and unusual color combinations and secondly, I don't have a lot of patience and can't wait to get to the next rug! You will find the designs suitable for beginners and the experienced who wish for a bit of whimsey.

The majority of rug designs are cat and dog subjects, my favorites! My second passion is accessories, so, there are also hand bag patterns. You'll find cats and dogs among them as well as patterns suitable for multi-fiber hooking. The selection is small to begin, but designs will be added as time goes on, I'm hooking as fast as I can!
