Simply Modern by Deanne Fitzpatrick

"I have read the new Simply Modern Rug Hooking book cover to cover (and back again!) and am thoroughly impressed and inspired. The book is visually exceptional and the writing is, as always, excellent. The most striking thing about it, however - in my opinion - is the warm, witty, conversational tone. I felt like the book welcomed me in and offered me tea." - Andrea from Ontario
