Christmas Swap Rug

Hooked for Lynn

my
Make-Do Christmas Swap
partner
from our
online
Primitive Folk Art Quilting Group

one of the many rugs
I've hooked in the past
few months...

forgot to take a photo of
the finished rug
but you get the idea...


this was so much fun
because
I challenged myself to only
use wool from the
already cut strips

it was only after hooking it
that the wool
was organized by color

More photos coming soon
of the wonderful items
that have shown up
on my doorstep
in the past few weeks~

Kelley,
You are the queen of making the proverbial silk purse out of a sow's ear!
You should really be on the teaching circuit, but I know that would be hard to do with your kiddies at home.
Love this!

Great rug - it's amazing how fast those worms pile up - seems the more you use the bigger the pile gets! Anyway - I'm sure you friend will love it. Love that JOY rug too - so adorable.

What a beautiful rug, Kelley. What a great challenge to hook from already cut strips. I might have to try that.
