Chair Pad 2 Progress


I hope you like red Debbie!
tried a dark mix background and it didn't work
 I think this one does



if you click on the pics
you can see I'm a pretty wonky hooker
always have been 
always will be

this probably stems from when I was 
learning to hook at Barb Carroll's...
one of the ladies had to have everything perfect
she was hooking prim designs
with Barb's excellent color planning
but each rug looked like it was machine made
 from then on 
I concentrated on color and not loops

there's nothing wrong with perfect hooking
it's just not me

soon I'll be ready for #3
green star maybe... 

I have to mention my Talon frame
it has absolutely spoiled me
I tried to hook a little something on my small
well loved and used frame
nope 
now I have to stitch some small designs together
so the linen will stretch across the large Talon
love it!

And I'm Hooked Again



there are no words for how much I love my Talon Frame!
I purchased the large floor frame
hooking are 12 x 27
 

 
 
pretty happy with how it's turning out
Debbie ...
do you think this will fit in your new room somewhere?
sure hope so
 
 

 
sorry about the blur
Melrose is clinging to some of the last wool on the bed
I've moved it back to baskets, sorted by color
easier to hook with
 
 this guy misses sleeping on wool mountain
even if he has a blast attacking wool strips
under the frame
 
when I have a hooking slump
it's usually a geometric that gets me hooking again
 
these fun colors for Debbie's beach room helped too!

Talon Frame


there is a new hooking frame in my house
waiting to leave the box...
but first I need to get my house in order
that will take a few days
in between work and visiting mom

Happy Friday the 13th!
