Sure, here is the info on the eagle:
It sounds very nice!

this does have about 12 colors I really like this one. it is kind of a
south western look in that it has triangles as borders on the top and
bottom or purple and orange and on the top blue and orange. sounds strange
but it looks nice. It is a realistic eagle in flight with a bright sun
behind it with sky blue sky. the eagle is mostly brown with white.

I'd be interested in the latch hook class. I'd like to do the eagle one,
either in class or on my own, but I couldn't find the name of it in the
email. Can someone let me know what the name is so I can get it?

I would like either of these to begin with So count me in. I do like the
idea of making this an email class, too.
Kathy lets talk off list. As I have done latch hooking in the past when
sighted and would love to give it a try once again.

Lindy and all latch hookers,
Lindy, Since you are interested in the rug-hooking, perhaps you could look
at the emails with the descriptions of the kits and see which kits you
might like to make. The class format has not yet been decided. Because of
the time difference, perhaps we could have this as the second email class?
Joyce would have to decide whether this is a good idea. It could be a good
idea because then everyone would have a pattern sent to them and could go
at their own pace and post questions for help or discussion. I am more
than happy to teach the class this way. all of us who have expressed
interest already know how to latch hook, so it is merely a question of
sending the pattern in an accessible format really.
Speaking of latch-hooking, I have a few people who have sent me their
choices for kits, and at the moment we have a tie going between" flower
pup"
and "puppy love." There is still time to change your mind or add your
choices. The class looks rather small right now. hope to see more interest

I was wondering if such latch hook pattern books might be available
somewhere?
One of our teachers compiled such a book for us in Afrikaans and it was
produced in braille for those of us who were taught did latch hooking at
school.
However, this was more than 20 years ago and I think only that one pattern
book for latch hooking was ever produced here in South Africa.
We worked with fairly large canvas squares and bulky yarn and the patterns
would have a name and then the row number with the colours as Michael
described.
Just wondering.
