Kris mcdermet rug hooking.
We enjoyed stopping by our friend kris mcdermet s class where she was teaching how to braid around hooking and make 9 loop centers.
Kris mcdermet s rugs which combine techniques of traditional hooking and rug braiding are a strong beacon indicating a mature artist s sensibility.

My favorite is her new rug labyrinth a large round 7 circuit labyrinth.
Kris has several rugs on display.
Last year kris and i curated the contemporary braided art rugs exhibit at sauder village rug hooking week and it was a very special time.
No one else s work resembles her efforts.
You know her rugs when you see them.
The class was very friendly and they were clearly enjoying the class.
She began hooking and soon her rugs had rows of braid to compliment the hooking.
We also offer a wide variety of rug making supplies including hand crafted rug hooks textured wool fabric rug hooking kits and books authored by kris miller.
