Hello Everyone,
Yes, definitely an odd title for a post. I just couldn't come up with something more creative... it is late.
As the title states, I have a bit of a new gig!! I am excited about the fact that I will be a regular blogger, about once every 3 weeks, on dotCanton.com. If you haven't visited, please do, today is my first post there. It is a sort of local e-newspaper. Steve Wilder, who is the creator, asked me if I would like to be a contributor. I love the idea of me being a local gal contributing to a local blog.
So if you would like to know a little more about my small corner of the world, please visit, leave a comment and say hi!!
Anyway, onto more randomness...
Say hello to Henrietta! At least I think that is what her name is... please correct me Karen if I am wrong. Anyway, my talented friend, Karen, whom I have blogged about on many an occasion, not only quilts but she rug hooks!! And she made Henrietta!
She is quite talented and I really enjoy her and her company. In fact, I haven't seen her in a little while and really need another sew-a-thon Saturday really soon... hint, hint!! Miss you, my friend.
I had the honor of meeting Henrietta at one of our all day sewing events....
Isn't she just gorgeous!! The attention to detail is unbelievable. I so admire this work and am lucky enough to own one of Karen's pieces (a different piece than Henrietta). It is proudly hanging on my studio wall. Oh no, I will not ever, ever, put it on the floor. Although, I would love Henrietta on my wall too. Thank you so much Karen for being part of my life and a constant inspiration.
Now onto the winners of the Sarah Fielke "From Little Things" Fat quarters...

Congratulations to the lucky winners. Oh my gosh what a gorgeous, fun and colorful rug. Henrietta is filled with personality. Oh boy, a celebrity in your own town...I'll have to click on the link. Have fun.
Henrietta is gorgeous, that is definitely a rug for the wall.
I LOVE Henrietta!!!!
The colors are fantastic!! Most hooked rugs I have seen are earth tones so this is very welcome change!
Congratulations to both winners!! Henrietta is just too cute!!!!
Congratulations to the winners!
Love the piece she made for you. I have been stashing roving and things to try some pieces myself.

Congrats on your new gig! That's awesome. As is Henrietta. Thanks for sharring.
What a new gig!! Way to go girl!
I LOVE Henrietta!! She is not a rug but a work of art!
Oh my gosh! i hope that I am not too late!! I am Mimi, one of your winners. This is awesome!! My email address is: micheletimms@gmail.com
Love the rug!! I would never have thought about using fancy yarn for hair.. so clever. I really admire that kind of out of the box thinking.
Congrats on your new blogging job!! You are also so very interesting and clever.. I know it will be a hit!!
Henrietta - her name fits.
Just read your post at dotCanton.com
enjoyed learning more about you.

Congrats to Moe and Mimi!
I think Henrietta is a wonderful creation!
That is an amazing rug! I keep checking rug hooking books out of the library because any rugs in my price range are ridiculously short-lived. They say the hooked ones last a lifetime. I even went so far as to get some burlap and a pair of what I think are rug hooking rails (from a junk shop).
I cannot believe how pretty this one is. I would not ever ever be able to step on it either. But I bet if you did, it would not hurt it. :o)
What an amazing rug...glad you are putting it on the wall!
Jackie always makes me feel like a celebrity when she honors me with a post! So happy you all like my rug! (She is for sale . . . ) If any of you have any questions about rug hooking, feel free to email at jasper6340@gmail.com and I would be happy to point you in the right direction.
Thanks so very much for everyone's kind words and enthusiasm! Be well and enjoy the Holidays.
