Purple Reins!

Yay! It's about time purple gets its well earned recognition. Oh the time we could have saved if only someone had asked my opinion about it years ago...  :-) You can imagine my joy when I read the following article.  (Taken from www.startribune.com.)

  2. Thank you for kind words!

    Years ago, I used to do some rug hooking - great fun! I loved doing it - and absolutely love rug hooked pieces. I still think that I may pick it up now and then - but you know how it goes....too many projects, not enough time.

    Then a few years ago, I started working with recycled wool - and I was "hooked"! :-)
