LIGIONER DAY

On Wednesday, a week ago,

my friends Barb, Nada and I

journeyed to the Woolley Fox Rug Hooking

Studio in Ligioner, Pa, to Barb Carroll's

open house and to visit the four

classes being taught at the same time.

The first thing we saw when we arrived

were these cute "rubber ducky's" in a row

 They all had little hats on.

What a cute way to utilize a pond.

Then we went into the area where the rug

patterns were and of course, I had to

but Edithe O'Neils "Blue Basket" pattern.

I have been want to do this piece for a long time.

The first thing we saw in the house

was this adorable pair of Scotties all cozy in a

lovely chair.  They belong to Barb Carroll's 

daughter.

One of the rugs hanging on the

wall.  Very nice!  I wish the picture was better,

but I think my flash would have been to

much.

 I really love this piece, also on the

living room wall.

Of all of the pieces in her home, I liked this one

best - it had such charm.

 After we finished shopping at Barb's we were off

to lunch.  In the meantime, we had met Beth and Susan,

two of our friends from Boonsboro.

Here's Beth at her car, just as we pulled up

on the same street in Ligioner, planning to

do some shopping in the lovely little

stores.

 Here are Barb T. and Susan getting ready

for shopping.

This is a lovely little shop.  We had a lot of fun

looking at everything.  Everything was hand made

and absolutely delightful.  Barb purchased a lovely

hand blown glass Pear ornament.  Just beautiful.

I didn't get to see what Nada had in her

bag but it was full!

I purchased 2 lovely pictures.

After the shopping trip, the next

stop was the Town Hall to visit the rug show,

and on to the Ramada Hotel to

visit the class rooms.

Rug show and class room action

on the next posting!  Stay tuned!

Thought for the day:

There is nothing worse than a sharp image of a fuzzy concept.
