I have been wanting to hook a yellowware-inspired rug
since I posted about my yellowware collection last week...
since I posted about my yellowware collection last week...
so here's what i came up with:
I'm using a mix of 4 different colored wools, and three different cotton fabrics ~
...the picture below show the colors more true...
I tend to hook very high...my loops are almost half an inch tall...
do you hook high or low? do you hook as UNevenly as me? hahaa...I like it :))))
I like the way it's coming along, and I think I'll do the background with charcoals & blacks.
I think I'll braid an edge for this one too, but we'll see!
I was talking with my friend Sherry (fromsherrysheart) and she suggested that I offer the honeybee chairpad and perhaps smaller patterns like this as paper or red-dot patterns...
what do you all think about that? I value your input!!!

Today I'll be treasure hunting with my friend Joan ~
hoping to find some goodies for our
Spring Open House on April 14th here at the farm.
maybe I can find another old hook or pair of scissors to add to my collection?
oh, I almost forgot...
the shop will be CLOSED this friday & saturday
I'll be setting up at the VA Rugfest on friday, and vending there on saturday,...
