Woke in my recliner and cleaned up the kitchen after family supper last night. Now its "morning tea and the board time", then choosing fabrics for the rest of Row G of my Dear Jane after I let the chickens out. (Boy, did they stop laying early this year and starting to molt already! Cold winter coming?)
Enjoy your day! |

Looks like Locker Hooking, not latch hook. The tool looks like a large crochet hook with an eye in the end. We carry a book at the LQS where I work, entitled "Fabric Locker Hooking" by Kathleen Carpenter. She gives step-by-step instructions on how to do this technique. It's a great way to use up your crappy WM fabric.

Here is the book on locker hooking. I bought the book but you really do not need one. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8hahk...eature=related - the locker hook is like $5.00 its a nice cheap hobbie.

I am still working on UFOs. My goal was to finish 5 a week, but I went through all the almost done (easy) ones quickly and so I have slowed down. I am working on quilting the border on My French Hens quilt. Hope to have it done before noon. Still have some quilting to do in the body of the quilt but it won't take too long.
