HOOKING WITH PLAIDS

On Monday, October 7, 2013, at 11 a.m., Sheila B is giving her workshop on Hooking with Plaids.  Come learn how to take one piece of plaid fabric and separate it into light, medium and dark values and use a coordinating colour for the outline of you design.  Using a #4 - #6 cut, you can choose to hook either a 5" square design called "Spring Tulip" or a 9 1/2" square design called "Tumbling Blocks'.

Material Required:

-Hook, hoop or frame, rug hooking scissors, sewing scissors, rug hooking cutter
- plaid wool fabric.  (recycled shirts, skirts, etc.)
-a coordinating solid colour wool fabric.


In preparation for this workshop, please put one of the following two patterns on your choice of backing material.  If you need help with this, please bring your backing to your hooking group and some one will surely assist you.

Here is a picture of each of the designs.
