Rug Finish

Please excuse the long delay in posting...life has been very hectic and eventful lately, so I have REALLY neglected my blog.   I hope to do better!

I've been working on a 30" x 30" geometric, designed by Margo White.  Finally, yesterday I finished the hooking...now to hem.  This is my first time using a 3/8" cut and I've fallen in love with wider cut hooking.  Now I want to try one even wider!  LOVE the primitive look of wide cut, and it does go a little faster!


On my monitor, the color looks a little faded, but the colors are fairly rich in person!

I have quite a few rug pictures to share from the Bishop Hill Hook In and also from the St. Louis Hook In, as well.  Will have to organize a little before I post them.

Have a great Memorial Day Holiday.  Thank you and may God Bless all those who serve in the military as we remember those who have sacrificed all for our freedoms.

Hugs,
Linda

  4. GREAT rug Linda - I'm so glad you shared it with us. I recently spent a week in the St. Louis area and enjoyed my time there. Didn't even THINK of looking into rug hooking events! Argh!
