We just had to share this beautiful Santa rug hooked by Pam Jones. She worked on it with Donna Hrkman. Pam is primitive ho**er but stretched her creative boundaries with this one. She hooked it mainly with 5-7 cuts with the detail work (eyes and nose) done in 3-4 cuts.

We are excited to welcome Jenny Smallridge of The Wooly Horse as one of our teachers at the Holland Rug Hooking Retreat.

Jenny has a love for antique rugs. Much of her work is inspired by old rugs from the past, carefully studying their patterns, colors, and movement so she can recreate and share them with ho**ers. Through her work with The Wooly Horse, Jenny helps keep these treasured designs alive for a new generation of rug ho**ers.

Alongside her antique reproductions, Jenny also creates wonderful primitive-style rugs that have that warm, folk-art spirit we all love. Her patterns are primitive, folky, charming and oftetimes playful. Whether you love antique rugs, primitive designs, or both, Jenny creates a relaxed and welcoming space where rug hooking creativity can happen.
