I'm starting a new mostly unplanned rug
if you'd like to hook a long with me
these rugs from Pinterest
are all border ideas
you are in no way limited to these borders...
my rug will be large
because that's the piece of linen I want to use up
from my
"I'm never going to hook this pattern" stash
I'll use as many of the worms from my stash as possible
I'll cut more as needed
I've chosen a color palette
as in...no orange
my "plan" is for a flag rug
with a busy border
I'll be doing an American flag
you can choose your own
I like asymmetrical rugs
so my borders will all be different
probably
see where I'm going?
loose plans
if this rug inspired me
I'd just replace the elephant with a flag
maybe stay neutral
maybe use color
a couple more no brainers
replace basket or dog with a flag
I'd put pennies in the corners
very simple
these two are my biggest inspirations...
both color and design
*****
so that's how I start planning an unplanned rug
I'm beginning in the left upper corner
will share photos as I go
other ideas will be shared in
The Out of Hand Rug Hooker group on FB
