Blue Pumpkin

a very "kankerdoodle" rug

not sure of the background

or any details along the border

just a fun rug to hook! 

*****

of course Saundra was first in my mind

when I posted the antique rug yesterday

I look forward to seeing

her hook it

 

Primitive Hooking Old and New

I keep coming back to this antique rug

Fall Flight Bird

I pulled an old pattern out of the stash

one of the Collector Series desings

by Jan Patek

Fall Flight Bird

impatient to get started

I just drew up my own based on the pattern

will be adding a crescent moon 

my favorite

another little mat nearly finished

the next will be a cat and pumpkin

Itty Bitty Kitty

the first one of my three little rugs

started and finished the hooking on this one

today

the gold green mix is one of my favorite backgrounds

hope you're having a good night!

Antique Rug Show

all the images in today's post are from Pinterest

antique rugs are my favorite

whether seen for the first time

or many times before

I learn something from each one

I have three little rugs to hook

on one piece of linen 

after that who knows...

I'm very taken by the white cat with flowers 

Swap Rug

Village Pear Tree

pattern from Woolen Memories

approx 24 x 32

Rhonda received her rug this morning 

 can finally share a photo

(provided by her since I forgot to take one of the finished rug)

I had a lot of fun hooking this

using a lot of strips from my stash

cutting mostly background and blue for the house

  I did have to change up the pears

from my original hooking

they looked...wrong

the only change I made was the pumkpin

added that instead of the fence...

this pattern was initially chosen for Mom

so it may have sat in my stash forever

until this swap came along

so glad I hooked it!

I know Mom would approve

plus it got me back to enjoying hooking again

always a good thing

 

Favorite Designers

Jan Patek pattern

some of my favorite patterns

are the older ones from 

Jan Patek and Linda Brannock

even a few of the newer ones

deciding what to hook next

I pulled out my stash of their books/patterns

smiling as I think of Mom

wanting to stitch ALL their quilts...

for sure it will have a pumkpin

Thanks for looking!

these prices are creeping up to a more 

normal range for hooked rugs

still less than what I'd charge

if I wasn't interested in having them 

move to a good home 

where they won't be ignored...

also shipping charges took a big bite out of me

started hooking this years ago

didn't like the hairless linen

so reversed hooked the entire piece

looking over some photos of my older rugs

punch needle pieces

and "rejects" like this 

has me wanting to create them again

so be on the look out for lots of cats
