To start we have had a host of fun and interesting visitors. Here are Beth, Pauline, Jill, Gloria, Gillie, Grace, Joan and Harmony from Ontario (oh and I'm in there as well). With a special thanks to Jill for peeking in at my blog and bringing the girls for a visit. As I find so often in the rug hooking community this is a group of open and adventurous gals that you just want to pack yourself alongside in the van and take off to discover something new...alas I needed to stay home and get some work done but the girls carried on to one of Deanne Fitzpatrick's life changing workshops (for rug hookers and, I would argue, anyone else who would be interested in a new paradigm).
On the topic of rug hookers being all around great folks (and me being very behind in my postings) I want to send a big THANK YOU to Lauri who named London-Wul to her "BLOGGER AWARD" list. Lauri is indeed a rug hooker, an on-line community builder and (YAY!) a new spinner as well. Feel free to visit her blog at Threads of Miz.
This vote of encouragement actually came along several month ago at a time when I had just lost my dad and was more than a little in need of a pick-me-up. Thanks again Lauri. You remind us all what a great gift it is to simply say to someone "I like what you do".
Also in September, we hosted a wonderful dye workshop with instructor Joanna Close. Joanna taught colour theory, natural and commercial dye techniques. For more information on Joanna check out our listing of further workshops (right sidebar).
And of course, September had its share of animal adventures as well. Freddy the peacock decided to vacation for several dramatically stormy days as we nervously awaited his return.
