"I hooked this rug for my family and my husband. This is the second rug I hooked using an image as my guide. I worked with Nancy MacLennan on this piece and learned so much about hooking a pictorial and the subtleties of directional hooking and how to get a motif to stand out using thread work. This rug was a joy to work on."
