I’ll start with Saturday and go backwards! Tammy and I hit the road early Saturday morning and headed North to Warsaw, MO to the hook in at Saltbox Primitive Woolens.
Patty Wallace is the owner, and let me tell you, those girls know how to put on a hook in! This is Patty, ringing her little cow bell to get our attention. She said it gives her POWER!
I finally got to meet my kindred sister Katie. http://katie-primitivewoolens.blogspot.com We are both breast cancer survivors and I think she’s the first person that told me she would pray for me that I didn’t personally “know”. We quickly became internet friends, but got to meet in person this day. She’s holding a little wool owl I made for her.
The shop was absolutely wonderful. Yards and yards of wool. And tons of finished rugs hanging on the walls.
This lady (sorry I don’t remember your name) was carrying a little bag she bought from me three years ago at our Springfield Boathouse hook in! I need to make some more of those!
And my homies that also made the trip.
Tammy and Elizabeth

This is the Darling project Jo Lynn is working on. I have never hooked right onto wool. I am liking the look!!
We ran into a terrible thunderstorm on the way home and had to pull off the road it was raining so hard. But we made it safely home at around 7:00 p.m. Thanks again for driving, Tammy.
Tomorrow I’ll go back to Friday and show you my day!
Peace,
Sheri

What a wonderful shop. Maybe someday I'll actually have time to try my hand at hooking. Jan
Aren't hook-ins the best - a day filled with food and friends and something in common you all love! so great you have a travel partner that shares your interest!
Oh Sheri! Love all the pictures! It looks like such a great time. Maybe I can make it with you guys on the next road trip!

If i win the lottery I want to go to the hook in at Saltbox. Those girls look like they know how to have fun.
Your little owl is darling.
love your wool owl and all the great photos of your hook in!
Sheri,
In Patty's latest newsletter from the Saltbox, she has pictures of the hook-in. It was easy to see Tammy's three rugs being displayed and you with the beautiful cat rug.
It was nice to see your photos and hers. What a great time you had, I'm sure.
Looks like it was a very enjoyable day Sherri ~ really enjoyed your photos. Are you going to the hook in next Sat.? If so, I will see you there! Blessings ~ Katie
