Explore expertly crafted, contemporary hooked rugs with designs
ranging from abstract to political statement, and from adorable pet
depictions to painterly expressions. The Green Mountain Rug Hooking
Guild mounted a great exhibit for a few short weeks in November
2008 at Shelburne Museum in Vermont, and now displayed forever in
the pages of this rich book. Two featured artists - Rae Harrell and
Diane Kelly -display their personal styles through retrospectives
of their work. Members from the guild were challenged to think
"outside the box," and they came up with a variety of imagery and
form ranging from lifesize, three-dimensional sheep to
extraordinary miniature punch-needle works. Other categories
include animals, florals, landscapes, penny rugs, and even a small
section dedicated to the smallest members of the group: the
children. The colors, forms, and variety will astound and inspire
anyone with an interest in fiber arts.
