Hooking Eyes with Kris Miller
Class, June 20, 2025, 1-4 pm
A well-hooked eye can bring life and personality to your rug. Are you hesitant to hook a face because the eyes seem a bit too intimidating? In this class, Kris will walk you through three different techniques to create eyes with a primitive flare. Hook a “realistic” primitive eye (suitable for both humans and animals), a simple and easy bird’s eye, and a special quillie eye that is suitable for owls, pumpkins, and spooky Halloween creatures.
The class will include a kit with a piece of linen (eyes already drawn) and the necessary pre-cut wool strips to create each eye.
Students need to bring a frame, hook, and scissors. You may want to bring your own needle and thread; however, Kris will have some available during the class.
If you plan to take the class and want to order lunch to enjoy here at The Old Tattered Flag before your class, please visit our Events/Retreats page.
