Ark, 18 x 21 and 25 x 30. Dotty Raleigh of Frederick, Maryland, did a wonderful job with this ark. It looks so weathered and old. Her rainbow and sun are fun.

  Autumn Sampler, 29 x 55 hooked by Cammie Bruce, Lincoln, Nebraska. Cammie is a student of Soni Cassell in Lincoln. Just a joyful autumn rug that brings with it the fun of the season. Thanks to both of you.

Autumn Sampler, 29 x 54, I think that Carol's designs are just super for sampler rugs. And the one in the middle hooked by Marsha Moyer-Payne, Medford, New Jersey, is just wonderful. I love the bright splashes of the orange around the rug. Very happy fall season. Marsha hooked this at the Kinderhook Rug Camp in January of 2002.

Autumn Sampler 29 x 55, on the end hooked by Gail Tuller of Novi, Michigan. Gail's teacher is Dianne Klamik of South Lyon, Michigan. They both had a great time playing with this rug. Makes for a very "lively" fall. The straw on Gail's scarecrow is fun.

Berry Basket, 32 x 28 hooked by Carol Daugherty of Indiana. Three of my favorite things about this rug are the wool she used for the line between the background and the border, her basket and her berries. Thanks, Carol. The second Berry Basket was hooked by Cookie Soisson of Ligonier, Pennsylvania.

Flower Basket, 26 x 26, a delightful floral, hooked by Nancy Tiernan of Pennsylvania. Nancy brought the center flower colors out to the border which makes your eye see the whole rug at one time. Her background is a mixture of three lights. Click on the thumbnail image to have a closer look at the basket. It's great!

The second Flower Basket was hooked by Patti Malone. Her basket and background are awesome. Such a neat pattern and the two ladies hooked such wonderful, different rugs.

Fruit Bowl, 13 x 27 the rug on the left was hooked by Kim Vezanni, Greenock, Pennsylvania. The fruit in a "yellow ware" bowl looks very cheery. I love the outline on the pears. They were fading into the background and this wool made them very special.

Nola Christiana, Rochester, Minnesota, hooked the second Fruit Bowl. Her fruit is still in the cheery yellowware bowl, and her rug has a much lighter feel to it because of the light pears and the top border. Both rugs are neat, and it is fun to see them hooked differently.

The third Fruit Bowl was hooked by Barbara Estridge of Auburn, Alabama. Her rug is very light-hearted and fun. Just "dances" with color and fun. Thanks Barbara.

July Cabin, 25 x 47, hooked by Kim Kagan of Doylestown, Pennsylvania. Dick LaBarge was Kim's teacher with this rug. In the original pattern there was a cat on the roof which she replaced with the fish weathervane. Kim has a cabin in Maine and this was hooked for her home there. I love the "flag flowers" on the plants growing out of the pots. Very whimsical and fun. Thank you, Kim and Dick.

The second July Cabin was hooked by Judy Carter of Willow Street, Pennsylvania. Her stars are so wonderful. The color play of her "flags" is fun and circles the rug. Just a great fun hooked rug.

Let It Snow, 27 x 29, a new design for 2008, was hooked by Judy Carter of Willow Street, Pennsylvania.

No Dry Mittens, 21 x 57, hooked by Sondra Lettrich of Greensburg, Pennsylvania. The mittens are a great place to use up lots of your leftover strips. They are definitely a cheery couple on a winter day.

The second No Dry Mittens, 21 X 57 was hooked by Sue McCann of Johnstown, Pennsylvania. Whimsical and fun to hook.  Actually the rug lends itself to using your left over wools.  Love Sue's blue moon.

Pumpkin Hollow, 33 x 22, a new pattern for 2008 hooked by JoAnn Refkin, Clayton, IN.  This simple pattern speaks FALL loud and clear.  Very happy!!!!!

Pumpkin Patch, 13 x 47. I love the different colors of the pumpkins. Note that there are five different colors, but this is kept simple by symmetrical placement of the colors. This rug was hooked by Annette Cochran of Missouri.

The second Pumpkin Patch above was hooked by Penny Gessner of Ligonier, Pennsylvania. A great fall rug. I love the white pumpkin. This rug would also look great with all green pumpkins and maybe one orange.

Pumpkin Patch, 13 x 47. The rug on the left was hooked by Joanne Speranza of Murraysville, Pennsylvania. Again, a different choice of colors and yet very effective. You absolutely can hook these pumpkins any color and have a great fall runner.

Heidi Apger, Mansfield, Ohio, hooked the rug on the right. I love the green pumpkin with the white ones. Don't you love the touch of white in this green pumpkin? Neat background color also.

Pumpkin Patch, 13 x 47, hooked by Mercedes Hnizdo of Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Mercedes' pumpkins are big time fun. Very whimsical and full of color. She used the colors in her hit 'n' miss border. Super!

Jeanne Bellemore of Merrimack, New Hampshire, hooked the Pumpkin Patch, 13 X 47 on the right. Jeanne's color play is just wonderful. The area under the pumpkins is super neat.

Rainbow Cabin, 16 x 23, a delightful small rug designed from one of Carol's log houses. The wide chinking is super and makes the log house lighter in appearance. Very fun and quick to hook.

The second Rainbow Cabin was hooked by Lisa Baughman of Johnstown, Pennsylvania. Another delightful Rainbow Cabin. The rainbow is neat, neat, neat.

The third Rainbow Cabin, 16 X 23, was hooked by Betty Bennett of Ligonier, Pennsylvania. Again a neat color story and just fun to hook. The rainbow can just be the "spark" for your rug.

The fourth Rainbow Cabin 16 X 23, was hooked by Bonnie Applebee of Redland, California. She hooked this in a mini MINI in Phoenix, AZ.  A very fun day.  Bonnie's red logs and blue roof and neat and I LOVE her rainbow.   

Ring Around The Posie, 23 x 28, far left hooked by Doris Mullen, Ligonier, Pennsylvania. This is a wonderful naive rug. I love the house in the middle of the much larger posies. Doris did not hook in the border line and I think that just makes a wonderful statement.

The Ring Around the Posie on the right was hooked by Wilma Batchelar, Lexington, Kentucky. The lightness and brightness make this a happy, dancing rug. Just a smile to your heart.

 Seven Little Snowmen, 17 x 54, hooked by Teresa McKinney of Topeka Kansas. What a GREAT job she did with this rug. I love the stars, the primitive snowmen and the sky which is a blue wool with flecks of white in it. Looks just as if the snow is falling. The red bird is one of Teresa's favorite things about this rug.

 Star House, 29 x 41. The rug on the left was hooked by Cookie Soisson of Ligonier, Pennsylvania. I love Cookie's background on this rug. It is a very old looking red. Her dark green house and old metal roof are super. I love the whimsical "star plants" in the pots, just plain fun.

The Star House on the right was hooked by my daughter Diane Lestina of College Station, Texas. The lightness and fun of this rug is a pure heart warmer and of course I think Diane is a heart warmer also. Thanks, honey.

  Star Power, 21 x 28. The rug on the left was hooked by Kim Vezzani of Greenock, Pennsylvania. This rug was hooked in patriotic colors, with a super old background. 

The rug second from the left was hooked by Janet McQuade of Vermont. Janet's rug was hooked in Kinderhook, New York, also. As you can see, Star Power does not have to be hooked red, white and blue. It looks super in any color combination you choose. Have fun with the rug.

Doris Manker of Laurens, New York, hooked the third rug while she was in my class in Kinderhook, New York. (These workshops are run by Jayne Hester - beansiejoe@aol.com.) Doris hooked this rug using old, old, old colors. The difference in all of these rugs is super to see and gives us all a wonderful freedom to "do our own thing."

Barbara Hill, Ligonier, Pennsylvania, hooked the fourth rug above. Super fun with the red, gold and blue. Just a nifty rug.

The fifth Star Power above was hooked by Fran Waller, Danville, Virginia, during an ice storm at a workshop organized by Robin Hasty of the Robin's Nest, Buffalo Junction, Virginia. Fran's rug is a delight.

Starry Santa, 31 x 34, Keith Kemmer of Waterford, Michigan, hooked this delightful rug. I love the way the star echoes the Santa and gives him a very special meaning. The night-time feeling of the border is super. Thanks, Keith.

 Star Spangled Banner, 47 x 12. What a great size! Long and narrow, just right for a special place. The first rug was hooked by Kim Vezzani of Pennsylvania. She used four shades of blue for the different backgrounds. Just simple and just perfect.

Nancy Foster of Hartville, Ohio, hooked the second rug. I love her pink moon.

Kathy Wadlington, Pine Bluff, Arkansas, hooked the third rug. Kathy used the same blue for all of the panels which is good also. I love her stars.

The fourth rug was hooked by Susan Harris, Berkeley Springs, West Virginia. Her camel/tan backgrounds are nifty. Sure does create a totally different look to the rug.

Patricia Ross, Wimberly, Texas, hooked the fifth Star Spangled Banner. Her stars are outlined with the same wool, and then two different wools were used for the fill. Neat look. I love the tree also.

Mary Ann Gearinger, Frederick, Maryland, hooked the sixth delightful Star Spangled Banner. I absolutely LOVE Mary Ann's red stars. A very sparky and happy rug. Her blue moon is fun too. Thanks so much.

The seventh Star Spangled Banner was hooked by Marsha Moyer-Payne of Medford, New York. Her flag is so neat and fun, but most of all I love that some of the "lights are on and some of the lights are off" in the house.

  Sugar Pumpkin, 17 x 18, hooked by Sondra Lettrich, Greensburg, Pennsylvania, a fun small mat. I love the blue bird!

The second Sugar Pumpkin was hooked by Mercedes Hnizdo of Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Mercedes purple background with her green pumpkin is GREAT.   Love her bird too.  Lots of compliments used in this little rug.  Super fun.

 The Jacks, 15 x 35, hooked by Diane LeGras of Sulphur, Louisiana. A fun, fun rug and Merry Halloween to everyone. The color play of the orange and rust jacks with the blue and the green is big time neat.

Winter Friends, 24 x 28, hooked by Cyndy Landman of LaGrangeville, New York. I love the vertical stripes on this sweater and the horizontal stripes of the rug below. Both Cyndy and Sandi were joyful in their rendition of this fun winter rug.

Winter Friends, a fun winter rug. The second rug was hooked by Sandi Telzrow of Dallas, Texas. Sandi used one plaid wool to hook the sweater of the snowman. She cut the plaid into color sections and hooked them in order. This created the look of a plaid sweater using a single wool plaid. This rug is full of great textured wools and is a real "smile." The border is not the one in our catalog.

 Winter Sampler, 30 x 70, hooked by Annette Allessio, Fairmont, West Virginia. This is a fun rug to hook. As you hook each square it is almost as if you have finished a small rug. The backgrounds may be all the same as they are shown here, or you can do different shades of the same color. Annette hooked all of the snowflakes in the same wool. Sort of like your "quiet spot" moving around the rug. Notice how she carried her reds around the rug. A nice balance!

  Winter Wonderland,  23 x 58, hooked by Jennifer Figgins of Sandy, Utah. Just a wonderful winter rug. So much fun and very special. Jennifer was losing the trees so she hooked a darker area behind them to bring them forward. Her use of color in the entire rug is just super. The border was designed by Jule Marie Smith and me and is not available. Note the way Jennifer hooked the cat with different orange wools. An orange striped kitty for sure.

The second Winter Wonderland, 23 X 58 was hooked by Cathie Gordon of Chagrin Falls, Ohio. Truly one of my very favorite winter rugs. Everything we all think about. Cathie's playful use of color for the people and animals is wonderful. Very cozy log cabin. WOW!

Wool Barn, 36 x 43. Mercedes Hnizdo of Hope, New Jersey, hooked this with me at the Kinderhook Rug Camp in January 2003. She did a super job. I absolutely love her stone wall. The odd sheep is nifty.     

Penny Gessner of Ligonier, Pennsylvania, hooked the rug second from the left. A wonderful rendition of this pattern. If you look closely at the stone wall, you may see that Penny used some "weird" greens in the stones. Sure does look like moss. The hint of red used in the line between the background and the border helps carry the flag red around the rug. The border was hooked using the same wools as the barn. Looks very weathered and old.

Lynda Stout, of Lees Summit, Missouri, hooked the third Wool Barn above. So different from Penny's but also wonderful. Again I think that it is fun to see the way rug makers hook their own hearts and minds in the rugs. 

The fourth Wool Barn was hooked by Linda Traen, Lincoln, Nebraska. Linda is a student of Soni Cassell's in Lincoln. I think that the different color stars in the big flag are super fun. Linda added the dogs and I love the way she used the lighter greens to highlight the animals in the meadow. I also like the line just at the top of the stone wall. Thanks to both Soni and Linda.

The fifth Wool Barn above was hooked by Doloris Brown, York, Pennsylvania. Her stars are just wonderful. Doloris used some great soft plaids for them. They sort of blend in with the background, but are soft and visible. The small flag on the barn is neat too!

 Wool Barn, 36 x 43. Hooked by Jean Johnson, Grand Blanc, Michigan. Her sky is very very nice. And don't you love the sheep?

The second Wool Barn was hooked by Betty Bennett of Ligonier, Pennsylvania. Betty's stone wall contains some wool from her husband's britches. Fun to use "special memories" in a rug.
