I mentioned at our last monthly meeting that there’s a lot of good stuff available on the ohcg's Facebook page. Here’s a small sample of what’s out there:
- videos from Wanda Kerr’s dye studio: “ I'm excited to tell you I've just released over 40 videos on dyeing wool and rug hooking to my YouTube Channel today,
Please share this news with all your fellow hookers. Once scattered through out the rich and voluminous Welcome Mat , they are now all in one place for easier access.”
- this tour may be filled up by now, but it does sound interesting. The link takes you to an interesting site showcasing Guatemalan rugs; “Learn to hook a rug the Maya way!!! Only 4 spaces left on our 2019 Rug Hooking Tour to Guatemala. The tour will run from February 15 – 24, 2019 and is designed for all skills levels, from beginner to accomplished rug hooker. Contact rughooking.guatemala@gmail.com for further information.”
- this is a great colour wheel calculator.....to help out with colour planning.
- check out this post from Australia about sauder village in Ohio!
- this is interesting.....about the Oxford punch needle. “Cornwall's Amy Oxford invented an ergonomic rug-hooking needle in 1995. Since then, she's been quietly running her business and teaching the age-old craft of rug hooking. But recently, business has been booming thanks to a little bit of internet magic: #oxfordpunchneedle started trending on Instagram. Click to read more.”
Here’s a video with the whole story.
.....ok....and that’s only what they’ve posted back to sept 14!
