Designed by You: Ideas and Inspiration for Rug Hookers
There is a new trend in rug hooking a growing desire to express one's own favorite images, stories, and identity. Tamara Pavich wrote this book for rug hookers who wish to take their fiber art a little deeper through designing. Drawing on her own experience and the hooked rugs of friends and teachers, she has written a book to help stimulate our imaginations, make us comfortable with drawing, and inspire us. She presents thirty-six design ideas, ranging from simple to complex, to get us started. Nearly fifty rug hookers and well over a hundred original designs are featured in this book, the product of many imaginations. <p><p>Are you ready to be inspired?
