News, weekly blog posting from Della's Rug Hooking.

Once upon a time, in the land of the east coast of Nova Scotia, a hurricane named Lee, was to visit on the weekend.  He was to appear as a hurricane for some Atlantic provinces and for other provinces, a tropical storm.  Whichever coat he wore, he out stayed his welcome, stayed for supper, the night, and breakfast!

We had a car load, hardly room for a person in the back.

At rug school we had a kitchen...

Change is inevitable, some of us embrace it, others run the opposite direction.  Do you like when the seasons change? I saw a flock of geese this morning.  How is that possible as this is usually a sign that fall is coming but it is only the middle of August!  Children grow up, people get older, a new rug pattern needs to be started, how do we handle these changes?  The human being is very adaptable to changes as history has shown.
