Stitching Away

the other day 

chicken was baking so he put his grumpy coat on

hoping it would earn my pity

What a little poser!

 Old Flag Station

by The Pinkeep

there is nothing I don't love about this pattern

and this designer

I started on my third of her designs yesterday

Stitched on 32 count Marble Hazelnut by xju designs

that stained looking background is perfectly prim

As always, I changed a few things, floss and threads at bit

looks so much better in person

*****

I was wrong a little bit ago

saying "hell no" to designing my own patterns...

been looking for some Halloween smalls

there are no cats

to my liking for the most part

shall I draw them on graph paper

or purchase a program to design them to sell

decisions await

Hope you're enjoying your weekend!

Another One of a Kind

 

loved hooking this one

the colors speak to me!

I think the background color I dyed

is perfect for fall rugs

14 x 25 approx

SOLD

one of a kind design

next up will be donation rugs

smaller than usual so they will be more affordable

But First

cleaning up the disaster I made of my house

hooking and dyeing

Happy Friday!

the sun is shining and it's chilly here

Hooking Complete

about 18 x 28

am thrilled with how this turned out

mostly cut just what I needed

ended up having to scrounge for some different blues

to finish up

the background is a mix of dark and medium blues, 

dark and medium teal

about half as-is and half overdye

the petal are a mix of four different wool pieces

one as-is

 the middle is one piece of plaid as-is

sorry

no before shots of the wool

just thought you'd like to know

scrappy is my thing

this rug will be available for purchase

once the steaming

binding and signing are complete
