yesterday I planned on makingsome stuffed pumpkins
cotton velvet ~ wool ~ homespun?
once I started looking through
the wool stash
I know it was futile...
I had to hook
nothing would do but hooking
cut some strips
drew a few pumpkins on linen
then got to work
I couldn't put the hook down
it's only about 15 x 15
so finishing it in a day
was a breeze...
all that's left is to sign it in stitches
I think Melrose loves it
as much as I do!
the colors in this photo are
closest to the real thing
and Melrose does not have a cloudy eye
just shows up that way in photos sometimes

Oh Kelley, I do so love your pumpkins! What a great little rug. And Melrose has good taste! What a handsome boy he is.
Love the rug, Kelley!! I started to make some pumpkins too...but then I got busy binding one of my rugs. Melrose is like our kitties..they just love those warm rugs!
What a great fall pumpkin rug, Kelley! You have inspired me to make some wool pumpkins! Melrose looks content too.
Not a pumpkin fan, but I sure do always love your pumpkins!
Kelley,
You make the best pumpkins! That is such a sweet rug and 15 by 15 is a nice size! Your one fast hooker!!
Melrose is adorable and is probably impressed with how fast you hooked it too!!
Hugs!

To me, finishing a 15 x 15 hooked mat in a day is beyond belief!!! That is impressive. Sure wish I could hook half that fast:) Love your colors.
Pug hugs :)

Gorgeous! Love it! Do you still have my address?!?!?!?! lol! ;-) Happy October!!!
I'm just wondering what speed you have your arm on? Did you see smoke before you were finished ;)?
GREAT piece! Melrose looks so soft..
Great hooked rug! i don't know how you stitch so fast! I think Melrose is waiting to lay on it as soon as you aren't looking! :)
Melly is so beautiful. I love black cats so much. I sure miss my pair!
I love the little mat too.........the colors are just gorgeous!
Start to finish in a single day? Fabulous!!!! Still haven't started my first. :o( Now trying to figure out what sort of frame/ hoop to use.
Your pumpkins are really beautiful! You are so creative! ♥
