But I'm glad you are "out". I just found your blog a few minutes ago and your rugs are absolutely FABULOUS! GORGEOUS would be another word I would use, too. I love color, too. I use a more coordinated approach to my quilting, but when it comes to my rug hooking, it's C-O-L-O-R.

I can't imagine going to work every day under that kind of stress. No wonder you still have dreams about it.<br />The rug is lovely...it reminds me of Portugal. We go yearly to visit my mother-in-law, and we've brought back several similar long rugs. There is a cottage industry for weaving rugs in the area we visit - women are supplied with the raw materials and the rugs are sold at a small shop in town. The colour schemes are often unexpected, always interesting.<br />Weave On, John Donne, Weave On...<br />Karen (Rural Revival's Mom)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5818397854598010989.post-49593678949062715122010-05-09T16:49:37.320-04:002010-05-09T16:49:37.320-04:00Sounds like a very unnerving experience for sure....Sounds like a very unnerving experience for sure. I'm glad that it's in your past.. aside from when you revisit in your dreams. It's strange but when you described your scrubs (which I assumed were white) and the sea of green inmates and one blue officer, I imagined you beginning a new rug with mostly green, a bit of white and a solitary blue stripe.Hilaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12787493532006658679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5818397854598010989.post-79079166614893034162010-05-09T12:37:40.348-04:002010-05-09T12:37:40.348-04:00I had to read this twice.

It's not pretty. Love the rug! Thanks so much for the loopers - now, bear with me, I'm a weaver newbie. Do I connect those before I weave with them?
