Finished the hooking of "the wedding"


I'm so excited about this piece that I've hooked the whole thing in 2 days... and I mean I didn't even eat, sleep or you know!!! My shoulder hurts and my hand is stiff but my heart is so full of love for this craft and my two daughters that the time just flew... I was totally addicted!!! Thanks mom... so you know... I was absorbing everything for the 6 years I've been idle and it just comes back to me as I hook. My technique might not be perfect, but then either am I, so we are such a good fit. Years of sewing, applique, stained glass (failures) and a wish for artistic talent to draw has combined into this craft. Thanks to all the hookers, teachers and wool dyers that answered my questions, showed me their technique, and told me I'd be a "hooker" one day! Thank you MOM! I love you!!! xoxoxox Butchie
