I have been inspired by so many of you out there who share little glimpses of your creative lives and loves. Here is my attempt to do the same. This blog is dedicated to Marilyn Hardy - rug hooker and friend. Saturday, April 4, 2015. I hooked this rug as a Christmas gift for my Mom. My two brothers and I are up there in the nest. All five of us were born and raised in Kansas, with lots of sunflowers all around.

Home of the Fun,Funky,Fiber Art of Vicki Hardcastle. Saturday, January 2, 2016. This is a new start to a new year for Hardcastle Folk Art! In looking back at this poor blog that I have sadly ignored for a long time, I see that I have not told you that I now have a shop downtown Eureka Springs,Ar. My fiber art pieces can now be found there and I also have rug hooking,felting, punch needle,quilting and wool applique supplies. I will also be carrying handcrafted pieces by other artists too.

A place to reflect on life, faith, family, friends and interests that keep me refreshed. Saturday, September 28, 2013. Hand Dyed Values of Rug Hooking Wool. This is the Wandering Method.

Tuesday, March 20, 2012. Just wanted to share a springtime bouquet with you today. My favorite lilac bush is about to explode with blossoms. The Bradford pear tree and dafodils are at their best. Oh, how I wish they could stay like this a little while longer. Posted by Thistle House Primitives. Tuesday, March 6, 2012.
