Warren Kimble

This is a fun rug. You can use either a dark or light background. Be sure to use several wools in the background to give you an interesting play of color. In the border, use your leftover bits and pieces from your other rugs. This example was hooked by Sue Swank of Shelby, Ohio. Sue started this rug at a Woolley Fox Mini Workshop. Take a good look at her background. I love the puddles of color in it. Her border is just a very simple collection of wool around the rug.

Hooked by Karen Roberts, Bonner Springs, Kansas. Karen hooked this at a Woolley Fox mini workshop and we had a lot fun with this small but festive rug. Surely makes you think of the warm and sunny summer days.

Hooked by Bonnie Waltz of West Chester, Pennsylvania. Her rug is so crisp and so summer. Very neat.

Hooked by Joanne Speranza, Delmont, Pennsylvania. Joanne loves her background. Note the odd wool just wandering through the background. Adds a neat movement to the rug.

Hooked by Mary Lynne Naples, Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Very simple and rich in color. The movement in Mary Lynne's trees is super.

Hooked by Grace Hostetler of Claysville, Pennsylvania. First Place and Best of Show, Washington County Fair. I think that Grace's trees and border spark up and make this rug a fun piece. Congratulations to Grace on her ribbon!

Hooked by Kay Casten of Des Moines, Iowa. The silhouettes of the animals against the sky is super. The color of Kay's trees is wonderful. They halo the animals.

Jeannine Dougherty of Tyler, Texas hooked the American Barn on the right. This image of Warren's is so perfect for our country today. Jeannine's flag sky is the perfect color to highlight her barn and the wonderful Fall trees.

Phyllis Knupp of Ligonier, Pennsylvania, hooked this rug. Phyllis's border treatment is super on this rug. There are 13 stars in the border.

Beth Stitely, Boonsboro, Maryland, hooked the wonderful American Barn. Her autumn fields and trees are super. And as always I love this sky. And of course "Purple Beth's" purple fields are very neat.

Kathi Blake of Rochester, Minnesota, hooked this rug. Her autumn trees are wonderful and sort of play with the color on the barn. All six of these rugs are wonderful. A big thank-you to all of these ladies and to Warren for his wonderful design.

Hooked by Nancy Tiernan, Glenshaw, Pennsylvania.

Hooked by Stacy Price, Kansas (her teacher is Anita White).

Hooked by Kay Casten, of West Des Moines, Iowa. Kay extended the rug and brought the flag out into the border area.

Debby Lipson, of Stamford, Connecticut, hooked this rugh. She won Second Place at the Barnstable County Fair in Cape Cod with this rug.

Hooked by Karen Krebsbach of Lincoln, Nebraska.
Just a wonderful rug. I love the way that Karen hooked her blue behind the stars – and the red and white of the flag behind the barn. Notice how Karen outlined her barn in a deeper red to set it apart from the flag. Very patriotic and reminds us of how wonderful our country is.

Hooked by Cookie Soisson of Ligonier, Pennsylvania. Cookie used all of her leftover strips for the border in this rug. A great place to do that.

Hooked by Susan Morin, Big Canoe, Georgia. I love the patriotic feel of this rug. Warren is truly a "red, white and blue" person and his patriotic artwork is super in hooked rugs. A big thank you to Susan and Warren.

Gloria Johnson of Leesburg, Virginia, hooked this rug. You can tell Gloria had a good time hooking this rug. Very fun -- the swirls in the sheep, the off-white "weeds" in the grass and her friendly reds.

Hooked by Annette Cochrane of Omaha, Nebraska. I love her taupe sky, and of course I love black sheep (I am one!).

Hooked by De Etta Wilhelm of Lincoln, Nebraska. She is a student of Soni Cassell (they are hooking some real nice pieces, thanks). De Etta hooked the background with flag colors; however, this would also be nice with the flag done in two shades of blue as in the American Barn above.

A delightful rug hooked by Gayle Hill, Ligonier, Pennsylvania. Gayle's color choices just say welcome to Fall. Very folky and warm.

Hooked by Karen Douthett of Butler, Pennsylvania. Her colors are wonderful. Spirited and fun. And so is Karen!

Hooked by Mary Magnuson, of Stillwater, Minnesota. Mary hooked this during the Arrow Rock School. I love the simplicity and peacefulness of this rug. Thanks Mary.

Alex Platz of Pasadena, California, hooked this Barnyard Christmas. This rug is "Christmas." The peacefulness of the animals with the tree is wonderful. The dark quiet sky against the snow is grand. Note the way the sheep is just a touch darker than the snow - very neat.

Keith Kemmer of Waterford, Michigan, hooked this Barnyard Christmas. A very fun rug full of whimsy. The animals are super - especially the purple bunny. Keith's snow and sky are wonderful.

Hooked by Janice Lee of Valley, Nebraska. Such a peaceful and wonderful feeling this rug brings to your heart. Janet hooked her horse in also. Horses love Christmas too!

Hooked by Johanna Pino, Stuyvesant, New York. Johanna hooked this rug at the Kinderhook Rug Camp at the end of January. Sure brought a touch of spring to our hearts! Note the color of the bees. If she had hooked them in black and gold you would not be able to see the bees very well. So, red and gold bees are the ticket here.

Hooked by Crystal Brown of Washington, Pennsylvania. The gold background on this rug causes it to be very much fun and definitely has a "sunny" look.

Hooked by Genevieve Leeman of Spring Hill, Florida. I love the hills in this rug. They are truly alive. Genevieve added the border and carried the hill colors around the rug.

Polly Rhinehart hooked this rug. I love everything about this rug. Very stately and elegant. Thanks, Polly.

Pat Sims, Hiawatha, Iowa, hooked this rug. Again, I love the hills in her rug. The blue house with the blue sky is wonderful. The red house, red barn and red apples form a "triangle of color" which balances this rug perfectly.

Sue McCann, Johnstown, Pennsylvania, hooked this fourth Burnt Hills. The use of the rust for the trees provides a great "spark" with the white house. All of Sue's clouds were hooked with different wools. A fun way to do these.

Hooked by Carole Virag. She did a great job with the hills. She used several greens and then just moved them around in the different sections of the hillside. Her sky is super. The wool she used for the border is one plaid, which when hooked sort of looks like a wood frame.

Rebecca Calderwood of Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania hooked this rug. The spark of the rust trees balances the red in the house and barn and also frames the center white house. Love the "blue clouds and the off white sky".

Arline Keeling of Roy, Utah, hooked this rug. She used a two cut for the outline of the windows! Yikes! Arline's hills are just wonderful. You can "feel" the freshness of them. The softness of the sky and clouds echoes the softness of the large central house.

Hooked by Wanda Hurliman of Tillamook, Oregon. Absolutely a great feeling of Fall. Wanda's color story is fun, warm and cozy. Makes your heart full. The blue sky which is a compliment of the rust hills adds so much color strength. Very nice.

Hooked by Kathleen Keithly of Manchester, Missouri.
Kathleen really gave great meaning to “Burnt Hills”. The fall colors bring this rug alive. The border is not part of the pattern – but the fall colors play so well here – very playful rug.

Sherry Sales of Elkhart, Indiana, hooked this striking rug. Her colors and simplicity are wonderful. This rug makes a GREAT statement. Thanks, Sherry.

I love the black cat just sort of "hanging out." The gold coat and purple ball are super as well as the red bear. This delightful rug was hooked by Ellen Moore at a Woolley Fox workshop. Thanks Ellen.

Nora Sternecker hooked this delightful Christmas Chums. I think this rug is super in just about any color story. Very wonderful.

Hooked by Sherry Sayles of Elkhart, Indiana. Sherry's cat is neat, and I love the beard on this Santa. This rug is pure Christmas fun.

Christmas Chums was hooked by Amy Burks of Delmont, Pennsylvania. A truly fun rug – love the stars sort of framing the Santa – and who is the Star – well the kitty cat of course. Amy’s red Santa, blue background and gold stars are super.

Hooked by Nada Lind of Shepherdstown, West Virginia.Nada hooked this for her daughter Tessa. Cliff is one happy fellow on that braided rug. A wonderful and warm rug.

Hooked by Pat Klavuhn of Bedford, Pennsylvania. A fun rug with wonderful colors. Pat's trees are super!

Hooked by Kathy Ashcom, one of Barb's local students! I love Kathy's purple tree trunks. Just sets off the sky. Very neat.

Hooked by Mary Ann Gearinger. Very meaningful for Mary Ann. She retired from teaching after 48 years!!!! Her rust trees are super neat with the red school house.

Hooked by Martha Rutledge of Lakeway, Texas. Martha's sky and grass are the same intensity and make a wonderful background for this bunny. I love the spark of the orange carrot. Her braided border is wonderful.

Sherry Sayles, Elkhart, Indiana, hooked this rug. A fun small rug that is a super rendition of Warren's Cozy Bunny. I love the play with the "blacks and whites" and the spark of the orange for the carrot.

Joanne Speranza of Murraysville, Pennsylvania, hooked and prodded this Cozy Bunny. Joanne had this rug framed - just a wonderful rug. I love the background.

Hooked by Bonnie Smith of Frostburg, Maryland. A fun simple rug which says a fun message of "everything is okay"!!!!!!!! Great bunny, and the orange moon and carrot and neat.

Susan Harris of Berkeley Springs, West Virginia, hooked and prodded this rug. The body of her bunny is prodded with neat wool, looks as if "bunny" has been racing through the West Virginia woods!!!!!

Hooked by Nancy Cornell of Fredericksburg, Texas. Nancy used fun colors in the combs and feathers and then brought the colors to the border. Her backgrounds are quiet, which keeps the simplicity of the rug correct.

Hooked by Polly Reinhart, Wyomissing, Pennsylvania. Her grapes are sparky and fun. This rug is super and the great plaid for the border is just right.

Hooked by Bette Bryant of Fairview, Tennessee, at the Star of Texas Rug Camp. The basket and the grapes are my most favorite part of this rug. Love the background too.

Hooked by Penny Gessner. Fruit Basket is the size of the original pattern without the special border. A fun hooking project. This border is not available. It was hooked by Penny in a class with Jule Marie Smith.

...and very great this cat is. Betty Bennett, of Ligonier, Pennsylvania, hooked this cool cat. A big thanks to Betty and to Warren Kimble for such a super fellow. The simplicity of the rug lets you know that the CAT rules the rug. The rust cat agains the gold and green is super.

Hooked by Louise Schram of White House, Ohio. A fun, simple design that allows you to play with your color. Notice that her bird colors are reversed. This truly does look like a peaceful summer day.

Bonnie Waltz of West Chester, Pennsylvania, hooked this rug. Fun, fun, fun! Bonnie is going right through the American Folk Art Rug Hooking book and having a great time with the patterns. So far nine of them!

Hooked by Debra Inglis of San Augustine, Texas. The orange in the owl's eyes is wonderful and the teal moon is neat too.

Laying Around was hooked by Amy Burks of Delmont, Pennsylvania. Just love the feathers, big time fun and so playful. Think random colors and happy. The teal comb and waddle are great.

Betty Bennett of Ligonier, Pa hooked this rug. Great direction on the cat - and braided rugs are just plain cozy. Betty has braided many rugs in her time and she loved hooking this "braided rug".

Nell Berntsen of Acworth, NH hooked this Meow Mama. Nell works at the Dorr Mill Store and leaves MeowMama there for all to see. I love her cats. Super that they are not the same -- note the "quiet" star in her background top left.

Hooked by Bonnie Waltz of West Chester, Pennsylvania. Great soft rug. The way Bonnie "echoed" the background is super.

Susan Scott of Bellevue, Washington hooked this Meow Meow. Susan's cats are great fun, she outlined the one on the left with the teal, and this keeps the cat from "falling in". Love her background too.

Hooked by Joan Wiksten, Topeka, Kansas. Fun border with this fun rug. Joan is fun too!

Hooked by Weslee Hursh, Brownsville, Pennsylvania. Just a fun and whimsical rug. Weslee's "grass" is big time fun!

Hooked by Pam Damico, Houston, Texas. I love Pam's simple color story -- very peaceful and simple. This is a super rug to play with color.

Hooked by Chris Richey, Johnstown, Pennsylvania. This rug is very whimsical and happy. Mister Hare is neat and the background dances with fun. Super rug.

Bonnie Waltz of West Chester, Pennsylvania, hooked this rug. The richness of the background is super. The rug just dances.

Hooked by JoAnn Refkin of Clayton, Indiana. Very fun - her background is neat.

Judy Harrison of Delmont, Pennsylvania, hooked this rug. A fun, fun rug. Judy's pink bunny is whimsical and soft. The squares play off of each other, the bunny and the border. Very neat.

Mary Ann Gearinger of Frederick, Maryland, hooked this Mister Hare. I love the way the squares in the background dance around the rug. The softness of her background is wonderful and the movement in it adds to the playfulness of the rug.

Hooked by Donna Cheatham of Chesterfield, Virginia. This is Donna's first rug. She received lots of help and encouragement from Kay Brown of Richmond, Virginia, and her group. Thanks to everyone. Donna is the wife of Wayne's cousin's son. So blessedly she and her family are an important part of our family.

Hooked by Tina Ackerman. Just a fun and simple rug to hook. I love the leaves - these can be hooked lots of ways. Tina's mom, Bonnie Smith, owns and publishes the Wool Street Journal, a great primitive rug hooking publication. For more information contact them at Thewoolstjournal@aol.com

Hooked by Tina Ackerman of Kirkwood, Missouri. She hooked this for a 16-month-old little girl who loves the pink elephant! Very fun colors.

My daughter Diane Lestina of College Station, Texas, hooked this Peanuts Anyone? for her good friend Mary Ann. I love the tweeds in the elephant and the red background.

Emma Gene Schroeder, two-term chaplain of the La Villita chapter of the DAR, College Station, Texas, submitted her Pineapple rug (23 x 45) to the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution American Heritage Contest - Fiber Arts category, in April 2010.
Her entry won first in State and South Central District, and third in National competition. The theme of the competition was "America's Heritage Remembered."
"I decided to enter my Pineapple rug," she says, "to give recognition for my chapter and because this is exactly what I believe we need to do -- preserve our heritage through remembering our ancestors in every way we can. It also follows our Texas State theme: 'Preserving the Past -- Our Gift to the Future.'"
Many congratulations to you, Emma Gene!

Hooked by Cookie Soisson of Ligonier, Pennsylvania. Lucky I am to have Cookie hook with me regularly. A fun rug hooker! Look closely at the background; it is super.

Note the uses of different golds in the pineapple. I used about eight golds in all and then hooked one gold wool in an entire section of the pineapple. This ages the rug instantly, and is big fun to do. Also note that one of the top leaves on the pineapple is different from the others. I used the gold wools from the pineapple for the "swirls" around the rug.

Hooked by Crystal Brown of Washington, Pennsylvania. The movement in Crystal's background is very neat. The softness of the leaves actually highlights the pineapple and the border. Crystal has a very fun color sense.

Doris Manker of Laurens, New York, hooked this Pineapple. Doris's leaves are so warm and friendly and sort of frame the pineapple. The small lines of color under the pineapple and in the left corner make a nice "shift" to the rug.

Hooked by Mary Flanagan, Picket, Wisconsin. Mary told me she hooked this with no teacher. She read "American Primitive Hooked Rugs" and took a class from Jule Marie Smith which helped her with her border. Very nice, and thanks! I truly LOVE Warren's pineapple.

A delightful Pineapple, hooked by Gail Whitcomb, Massena, New York. The double outline in the big leaves just sets off this rug. The color story here is very elegant and wonderful. Gail hooked this at the Kinderhook Rug Camp in Kinderhook, New York.

Barbara Hill, Ligonier, Pennsylvania, hooked this Pineapple. Very unusual colors and just a super rug. The use of the reds warms up this rug.

Jan Pierce, Nisswa, Minnesota, hooked this Pineapple. A GREAT background and pineapple. I also love the way she did her border. Super rug and colors.

Hooked by Jeanne Bellemore of Merrimack, New Hampshire. Light fanciful colors make this a very unusual and playful rug. Lots of fun.

Jo Johnson, Rochester, Minnesota, hooked this rug with the blue background. Note the different wools in the background. I love the color of her leaves.

Hooked by Cathy Gordon of Chagrin Falls, Ohio. Cathy's pineapple is so fun. The outline of the leaves is super. Note the neat line between the background and border.

Mary Kelly, Scottsdale, Arizona, hooked this rug. I do like the red background behind the green leaves and the gold pineapple.

Judy Mueller, also of Rochester, Minnesota, hooked this rug. Both of these Minnesota gals were in a workshop I taught in Rochester. Judy's background is also super. Notice the wonderful plaids and tweeds in her background. Thanks to the Rochester ladies for a very nice time.

Hooked by Doe Porta, Murraysville, Pennsylvania. Her background is awesome. Thanks, Doe.

This is a GREAT simple design which translates to a super rug in any color combination. this rug was hooked by Carol Rahall, Mansfield, Ohio, and what a fun rug. The taupe pineapple and gold leaves are super.

Marcia Rickansrud, Springdale, Arkansas, hooked this rug. Her rug is very striking with the dark background. Quiet elegance I think.

Hooked by Mary Painter, Winchester, Virginia. Her border and background are nifty. I also love the color of her big leaves.

This rug was "team hooked" by Crystal Brown and Weslee Hursh. This rug took Best of Show and First Place at the Washington County (Pennsylvania) Fair 2009. It was raffled off on August 22, 2009, for the benefit of The Washington County History and Landmarks Foundation.

Nada Lind of Shepherdstown, West Virginia, hooked this rug. A great soft look. The leaves are just super with the background. Thanks Nada.

Hooked by Carole Virag of Ligonier, Pennsylvania. Her rug is a delightful rendition of Warren's art. Note the directional hooking on the barn. It adds to the feeling or appearance of being round. Several shades of red were used to make the barn look somewhat aged.

Hooked by Sherry Sayles of Elkhart, Indiana. Her trees are a red and green plaid which gives the great look of fall leaves on the trees. Her sky and barn are terrific.

Hooked by Mary Shearman, Westfield, New York. She hooked a super sky and I like her brown and white cow. This barn is at the Shelburne Museum in Shelburne, Vermont. Thanks Mary and thanks to Anne Bossinot who was her teacher.

Hooked by Mary Ann Gearinger of Frederick, Maryland. Round Barn has always been one of my favorite Warren Kimble rugs. Love the red Fall trees and the way they play with the barn. Also notice the cow, fence and clouds. Another neat color story.

Hooked by Diane Denmead. Diane does have a white rooster named Rufus with a purple comb. He is a fine and bossy fellow.

Hooked by Bonnie Walz. Bonnie's Rufus is wonderful, cheery and very sure of his "stuff." A great fun rug.

Kendall Carstens, of Rochester, Minnesota, hooked the second Rufus. Kendall had a GREAT time with Rufus. She was in my class in Rochester. Kendall brought a lot of her wool with her. She really wanted to use a "sort of busy textured background." We were able to do that by hooking a similar wool that was quiet around Rufus first and then hooking her wonderful textured background. This rug is lots of fun.

Mary Ann Gearinger hooked this Rufus. His border is big fun and Rufus is a mighty fine fellow himself.

Hooked by Sherry Sayles, Elkhart, Indiana. This is one super rooster. Sherry did a GREAT job with the border. It just picks up the character of Rufus and makes him even more outstanding. Thanks, Sherry.

Hooked by Charlotte Allison of Fredericksburg, Texas. Soft, old and muted – love the irregularities of the border and the fun with the stars.

Hooked by Julie Thornton of Shelby, Ohio, is lots of fun. I love the name WAGS in the background. Julie's dark blues in the backgrounds are super. Bring Wags right to the front.

Kate Scurlock, Cookeville, Tennessee, hooked the rug on the right. She is the VERY proud owner of a basset named Sealy Dee. The red backgrounds are super. We highlighted the wonderful dog with a lighter and brighter red. The halo makes Sealy Dee more special and makes this a very fun rug.

Hooked by Linda Lewis, Eighty Four, Pennsylvania. Linda's "Baby" is wonderful. Don't you love the markings? Her border is just perfect. Thanks, Linda.

Hooked by Sharron Nelson of Lancaster, Pennsylvania. She hooked it while attending the Woolley Fox Primitive Workshop in April. Emma Lou Lais was her teacher. I think they both did Sampson proud. Thanks.

Hooked by Carole Virag of Ligonier, Pennsylvania, and one of my regular hookers! This is a super small rug that is sure to bring cheer for any season. Carole's snowy sky is neat and I think the hat is fun.

The sky is a great background for the flowers and the birdhouse. Cookie Soisson, Ligonier, Pennsylvania, hooked a double row of color between the background and the border. This sets off the "frame" of the border which makes this more interesting.

Hooked by Mary Ough, of Dallas, Texas. (I do have a GREAT time in Texas!) Another nifty Warren Kimble birdhouse, and I love Warren's clouds. Her posies say Spring with their lively wools.

Hooked by Wendy Cross.

Hooked by Karen Krepps, Dearborn, Michigan. Karen hooked this here at the Woolley Fox during one of our mini workshops. I like the rocks - she did a great job with them. The border with the stripes is nifty too. And of course I love Warren's clouds.

Hooked by Karen Lisle of Colorado Springs, Colorado. This lighthouse is at the Shelburne Museum in Burlington, Vermont. A great lighthouse and a neat rug.

Teresa McKinney, Topeka, Kansas, hooked this Stone Harbor. Her water is awesome and very fun. The swirls in the sky add a lot of movement to the rug. Teresa also hooked this rug at one of the mini workshops at the Woolley Fox.

Hooked by Mandy Palmer of West Gardiner, Maine. Mandy hooked this for her granddaughter. The brighter colors are appealing to our wonderful grandchildren.

Hooked by Peg Ferri of Murraysville, Pennsylvania. The play of color in the crows is wonderful. Peg gave this to her daughter-in-law for Christmas. Lucky girl!

Sue Teggatz, Estes Park, Colorado, hooked this Sunflower and Crows. Note that Sue rounded off the rug on the top. Very nice.

Hooked by Cyndy Landman, LaGrangeville, New York. The red background brings a magical feeling to her Sunflower and Crows. This is a neat graphic rug.

This rug was displayed at the 2011 Ligonier, Pennsylvania Rug Show. I love the way the sunflower just sort of "spreads out in color". The brightness of the tips of the sunflower holds against the background very well. The dark border adds to the crows.

Hooked by Mary Ann Gearinger of Frederick, Maryland. Look at the wonderful colors in the crows! Just sparky and wonderful. Mary Ann's sunflower is nifty too. A neat rug.

Hooked by Nancy Thompson of Athens, Georgia. The way Nancy "echoed" her background is playful and fun. Love those crows!

Diane calls it Watermelon Flag. This rug is in the new Warren Kimble book which was released in late June. Judy Wissler of Connellsville, Pennsylvania, hooked this delightful summer rug.

Hooked by Debbie Wood of Pennsylvania. This is Debbie's first rug. Hooray for Debbie and the red, white and blue.

Hooked by Lonnie Olbeter, one of my students at the Woolley Fox. I love the simple outline of Lonnie's stars and the way the whites are different values. Looks nice and old.

Hooked by Bonnie Smith, one of Barb's students. The fun shape of this flag makes it easy to put anywhere. Bonnie's rug stripes are neat!

Hooked by Toni Ritchie. This is her first rug and just in time for the fourth of July!

A wonderful fun design hooked by Mercedes Hnizdo, New Hope, New Jersey. Mercedes hooked this one with me in Kinderhook. We both love the chest of this wonderful bird and the tip of the feathers.

Lee Anderson, Chapel Hill, North Carolina, hooked this Turkey Turkey. Again, note the quiet wool for the body and the play of color in the feathers. I also like her "bright" grasses. This keeps the balance of color with the feathers Lee hooked this at the Woolley Fox during a mini workshop. Thanks to Warren Kimble for this magnificent bird.

I love this Turkey, very majestic fellow he is. Penny Gessner of Ligonier, Pennsylvania, hooked this wonderful rug on the left. The quietness of the body sets the stage for the color play with the wing and tail feathers. The border (which is a plaid) continues the fun. Just a super rug.

Hooked by Bonnie Waltz of West Chester, Pennsylvania. I love this turkey of Warren's. The body is a wonderful place to play with the swirls and feathers of the turkey. Bonnie created a super movement and her feathers are fun with the soft tip of color at the end. Bonnie said she used the photos from the web site to help her with her decisions for color and placement. So a big thank you to Bonnie and everyone who has a Turkey Turkey on our web site.

Karen Davaule hooked this rug. The glow of this turkey in the night sky is fabulous. Love the teal wing and tail feathers too.

Hooked by Marilyn White of Bryan, Texas. A good friend of our daughter Diane! Marilyn hooked this with Cynthia Norwood, a very fun lady. I love the tail feathers on Marilyn's turkey. Just a great rug.

Hooked by Thirza Youker of Fort Wayne, Indiana. Thirza made the head a touch bigger and the proddy in the turkey and around the border is neat, neat, neat!

One of my favorite images by Warren Kimble. This rug was hooked by Betty Bennett of Ligonier, Pennsylvania. Her sky is wonderful and Warren's simple clouds are just right. The giraffes were a challenge. She outlined them with her sky wool and then filled in the shapes with the giraffe colors.

Dea Olson, Topeka, Kansas, hooked this Two Plus One. Her sky color is a real Warren Kimble sky. I love her flags and the whimsy of the direction they are waving. A fun "school days" rug.

Hooked by Bonnie Waltz of West Chester, Pennsylvania. Warren's animals are wonderful and Bonnie discovered his personality exactly in this rug. Note that the black spot in the right cow is in the shape of Vermont.

Santa is ready for the "drop," now if he just will fit! Hooked by Jane Bussom of Thomasville, Georgia. I love the "brick" wool that Jane used and also the flakes of snow. This makes the rug dance.

Hooray for the red, white and blue and Sondra Petersen of Unadilla, Nebraska, too. Warren is very much a "flag" person and this rug is big fun. Sondra used yarn for the heads of the wheat which created a fuzzy look. Great idea.

Hooked by Beth Stitely of Boonsboro, Maryland. A fun lady who loves to hook with "purple" and we all love that. Great background and also leaves. Just a fun rug all the way around.

Hooked by Debbie Regan of McMurray, Pennsylvania. Debbie's soft greens are reds are great.

Hooked by Nada Lind, Shepherdstown, West Virginia. I love this tall thin pineapple. A perfect "welcome" in any home. Simple, fun and happy.

Hooked by Jeannie Cunkelman of Ligonier, Pennsylvania. Jeannie's First Rug!!!!!!! And just perfect. Her sheep is fanciful and fun and provides the wonderful quiet area for her neat border. Congratulations Jeannie!!!!!!!!

Leslie Gorbey, Quarryville, Pennsylvania, hooked this Woolley Sheep. Leslie started this at one of the Woolley Fox mini workshops. She ended up hooking it for a Hospice Auction which was for the memory of both her mother-in-law and father-in-law. Hospice cared for both of them. This is a great story of real life, but to know that her husband bought the rug back for her is just super. Hook for the love of it and hook from your heart. That truly is what this wonderful "work from our hands" is all about. Thank you, Leslie, not only for a great rug, but a truly wonderful heart.

Keith Ewing, New Alexandra, Pennsylvania, hooked this Woolley Sheep. This is Keith's first rug! Kudos to Keith. The hit 'n' miss border is wonderful.

Hooked by Nancy Etter, St. Louis, Missouri, on the left. A wonderful, happy rug. I have always loved red backgrounds behind off-white sheep. Nancy's border is fun and playful and keeps the feeling of a happy rug.

Jo Ann Pino of Stuyvesant, New York, hooked the second Woolley Sheep. This is the mat size 16 x 21. Jo Ann hooked this in Kinderhook as part of the "Woolley Winter Sheep Class." Lots of fun and all of the rugs were different. I love the snow on the ground.

Hooked by Shirley Mills, Greensburg, Pennsylvania. This is her first rug and I love her black sheep. It is great to see all of the different colorations.

Alice Fraizer of Lexington, Ohio, hooked this Woolley Sheep. Alice's sky is deep and rich. The right green grasses area are a wonderful back drop for her super border.

Annette Allessio, Fairmont, West Virginia, hooked the third Woolley Sheep above. Each and every color story here is neat. Actually a fun scrap rug also. I do love Warren's animals.

Jill Carnell of Indianapolis, Indiana, hooked this Woolley Sheep. Don't you just love the spot of color she used in the border? Just sets the whole rug off. Great neutral rug.

Joyce Singer of Erie, Pennsylvania, hooked this Woolley Sheep, which comes in four sizes: the mat, small, medium and large. Joyce's ground and border are super. The movement is just perfect and the colors dance around the rug. Thanks Joyce.

Marsha Moyer-Payne, a wonderful New Jersey hooker, made this Woolley Sheep. The quietness of the rug is very peaceful. Just right.

Hooked by Pat Donoho of Upperco, Maryland. Super neat night sky. The stars "sparkle."

This is a wonderful primitive sheep. Easy to hook and an instant antique rug. This rug is available in four sizes: small, medium and large, plus the mat. Barb introduced the mat during Sauder Village Rug School in Ohio. I hooked the rug on the left and had a great time playing with the border. Note the stars, hooked from a great striped wool. They all look the same, yet are different. Fun to do.

Hooked by Weslee Hursh of Brownsville, Pennsylvania. I always love black sheep! The grass is big fun as is the border.

Hooked by Janet Essman, Lincoln, Nebraska. She is a student of Soni Cassell. The "posey" is not in the pattern; however, it sure is a nice addition.

Hooked by Bonnie Smith of Colorado Springs, Colorado. Bonnie did a wonderful rendition of this. I love the way she white-capped the water, and carried the ship color out to the border.

Hooked by Susan Harris of Berkeley Springs, West Virginia. Susan's teal sky and purple water are wonderful. Soft, fun and great.

Hooked by Sandy Robinson, London, Kentucky, at the Woolley Fox. Sandy says "he looks very proud, a real statesman." I do love this pattern and the way Sandy hooked him. Thanks Sandy, he is big fun.

Anne Geiger of Sterling, Virginia, hooked the this rug. A fun, fun rug. He definitely "struts" his stuff. His tail feathers are big fun.

Hooked by Kay Strohl, Nicholasville, Kentucky. Another great and fun patriotic rug. He is one proud boy!
