Antique Inspired Rug

I started my 2nd antique inspired rug....You can find the challenge pattern over at Kelley's Blog With Hook & Needle if you would like to participate. I decided to do this one with the oxford punch needle. The trees and birds look like "blobs" until you fill the background in around them....so if you try oxford punch don't worry about things when you are punching just stay within the lines and once the background is filled in it will turn the blobs into just what you wanted!

Happy Trails....Ginger
