I'm so excited, my rug is in the Rug Hooking Magazine. Maria Barton~Star Rug Company started a rug challenge in PRHG. We had to choose between a snowman or sheep pattern, I chose the snowman. Each member sent Maria 200 strips of wool in bundles of 5 strips. Then Maria sent back the bundles from each member to each one of us. We had to use all the colors in our rug~no cheating and dyeing the wool. After we were finshed Maria posted the pictures on Photobucket and everyone voted. I got 3rd place in my category. Maria wrote an article in RHG about the challenge and the pictures of our rugs are in the magazine. Thanks Maria!! It was a fun challenge.
Julie, Way to go on having your rug in the article! I haven't seen it yet, but I will. Congratulations!
