Welcome to My Red Cape. Long ago in another time my husband Jack and I lived in a little old red house. It was the stuff of dreams to us for the few years that we were there. I live there still a number of hours every day in imagination, with old dolls and paintings and fabrics and feather trees. I draw inspiration and happiness from the memories of that space in time and share some of it here with friends who remember how to step with Alice through the looking glass and take delight in whimsies and antiquities. ~Edyth O’Neill

Fredericksburg Rug hooking today

Each year for some time, Trish and Dorothy have held a hooking retreat at a local inn here. With all the wool vendors and happy people and great projects it makes for an extremely colorful 2 day event. I was invited to visit and see all the rugs, a heartwarming thing with so many people I have known for years in attendance.  Here are a few snaps.
 Veronica is working Barnyard Christmas from Barb Carroll. I wish I know more of the design names to credit.  There are some really large rugs in progress, these women are not making doilies!


Mary is working a great big one, she always displays such great color sense.
