Mr. Chill Makes a Comeback!


Remember this guy?  He made his appearance back in 2010... where did THAT time go?!! 
I've had quite a few requests for the pattern and decided to put him back in the lineup of my paper patterns over on  www.Etsy.com/shop/Redhousewoolstudio

That's where you can find my paper rug hooking patterns for sale. 

Good ol' Mr. Chill.... still sweeping away and as fun to hook as ever!

The pattern would make a nice gift for those rug hooking friends!

Leave your name in the comments and I'll throw your name in the hat to win Mr. Chill all drawn up on linen.... and you might just find him packing a little wool along for the trip!!

Many many thanks to all my dear blog readers who read and put up with me all through the year!!

Smiles and Hugs!

Cathy G

(Mr. Chill will sweep all the names into a pile and pick one on Friday... Dec. 19th 2014)

    Cathy,

    You are so easy to "put up with." Your blog is truly enjoyable. Mr. Chill is a particularly charming fellow, and I'd be very happy to see hin all drawn out on linen. I must say, though, that I really like the option of paper patterns and am very glad you offer yours that way. I have at least 2 of your paper patterns and am working on the "Merry Christmas" right now. Will I get it done before Christmas 2014? Very good question!

    would love to win your pattern. I've wanted to learn to hook for a while now (I'm a quilter) but no one in my area (Colorado Springs) teaches it until one of my favorite shops decided to teach and supply hookers!!! I've asked for the beginner lessons from my husband for Christmas and birthday--we'll see ...... I would put your pattern to good use! -)
