Open House and Studio Tour!


It's about time you say!  Why doesn't she update her blog?!!!  I hope you'll forgive my absence from blogging lately and accept an invitation to our first Open House and Studio Tour!


We are in the process of transforming my studio into a shop, gallery and fun place to come and get inspired or pull out a frame and hook a few loops!

Hand-dyed wool is everywhere!
Patterns and kits for hooked rugs and wool applique galore!
( even a few antiques and hand mades thrown in for good measure)
Cookies and mulled cider to keep the chill away and the spirits nourished!
For those who can only join us in thought that day I will be taking many photos to share here before and during the event.

When: Saturday November 17th (Opening Deer Hunting Season here) 

Where: Red House Wool Studio- 1505 Fencl Ave. Rice Lake, WI

Time: 9:30 to 5:30

    Wow Cathy, such great news and I'm so glad that your hooking business is keeping you so busy. Your transformed studio will be an amazing place to gather and all that beautiful wool surely will be irresistible. I just wish that I lived closer to go see it in person.
    I'm looking forward to your next post and all the photos. Take care.

    Cathy, you have been missed. First I must say what an adorable photo of your sweet little pooch (is that a John Deere collar I see?) Oh how I wish I could attend your open house and have a tour of your beautiful studio. I will be there in spirit! Looking forward to future pictures, your friend from Maine, Julie.

    Hi there, I was coming this morning to leave you a message asking if everything was ok, and I see it is more than that!! Congratulations on your first Studio Tour. I am sure it will become an anticipated Annual event. Like so many others, I wish I could just attach myself to this message and be there to participate. All the best - and I too look forward to seeing the pics. Adorable shot of the sweet pooch!!! oxox
