Hot off the frame is the chairpad I started yesterday. It's a pattern by The Red Saltbox call 1822 Fraktur Round. I didn't hook in the 1822 but it would look great if someone wanted too.
Now to get it steamed and bound. I go through cycles of hooking, punching, sewing, and binding. It works for me....at times I wish I was like all the gals that start something and complete it before going on to something else. Oh well....
I started this rug last June at the Star of Texas Rug camp while taking a class from Kris Miller of Spruce Ridge. I found my background wool and cut out some wooley strips and have it on the frame once again and this time I'll finish the hooking. I have 2 more large rugs started and I plan on finishing them before too long. The one above is called "Bewitched" and it has some fun techniques used in it. I'm off to see what I can accomplish before I call it a night!
Happy Trails....Ginger

ReplyDeleteOh your woolie creations are looking wonderful! I think you may be getting some snow today? At least that's what the weatherman says... got to fill up that pond!

Love your chair pad. Can't believe you completed it in one day.
ReplyDeleteGinger,
ReplyDeleteI hooked that Wendy Miller chairpad, too, but I finished it almost square instead of round. It sure took me a lot longer than two days! You are an amazingly fast hooker!
Hugs :)
