March/April/May 2018

Butterflies, whimsical cats, mushrooms and fungi—the Spring issue of RHM is full of inspiration for the spring of the year. Do you like challenges and group projects? Then you will be intrigued by two articles inside these pages: Texas postcards, a challenge from a Dallas group, illustrates how a group of rug hookers celebrate their heritage. Another group from Nova Scotia hooked an inspirational rug for a local hospice center to offer peace and comfort to all who enter. An amazing artist, Kris McDermit, shows us her works of art combining rug hooking and braiding. And Ellen Banker has designed a Welcome Mat pattern just for RHM. You will want to hook this one for your home!
