Books
I have about 30 cozy mystery softback books I'd love to swap with someone.
Most are newer titles.
If you or someone you know would be interested in trading box for box let me know.
I'm ready to read some new cozies. Love that genre- light and easy.
Speaking of reads, I am in a small book club aka three women drinking wine and talking some about a book.
Anyway we are reading Gilead by Marilynn Robinson and I highly recommend it.

Hooks
Today I resumed post-Cmas instruction with a small group of hookers.
These women attend a nearby day centre for people with mental illnesses.
An employee and I started the group about ten years ago.
That woman has since retired but a
wonderful (and certified) rug teacher helps me now.
Besides showing great courage in the face of trials,
these ladies have proven to be creative rug hookers.

Here are a few of the rugs they are currently working on:

One of us hooks the outline and she fills in OR we use a
row of safety pins to guide her.
That idea came from the group.
So, it's been a treat to get to know them and such fun to see what patterns
these gals will hook up next.
