Moving Right Along.... But Not Too Fast

In a couple weeks I'll be switching from primitive to bright.  My house is rather eclectic with several antiques and primitive hooked projects and dolls I've made.  The only place there is any bright color is in my garden bath area.  Particularly in my shower area where I've wanted the Cat rug for years. 

So today started pulling wool and in doing so wondered why the hell I had all the colorful wool when I don't hook with it.  HUH?  Really?  Why?  But at least I don't have to buy much if any is needed to fill in a spot or two at camp.  This is what I've pulled so far.  Yes, that was really in my stash and there is more.   Yeah, me, the primitive hooker.
For the life of me cannot remember the circumstances under which I received this thoughtful gift.  Was it a swap, was it with the frame I purchased from someone?  Anyway, Debe, if you read my blog it will be used in this project and would love to hear from you if the handwritten note and wool looks familiar.
As my jaccuzi style tub, sinks, shower and toilet are navy blue I plan to use a dark blue background for the rug which will make the cats pop out even more.  Or at least that is my plan for now. 

So much to do and only 1 1/2 weeks to do it EEK!!!!!!

  1. Those are some bright colors :) I am surprised they are in your stash, but I'm sure the rug will be W-O-N-D-E-R-F-U-L!!!

  2. I have primitive and folk art, so a mix of dark prim and colorful pieces, need a pop of color, here and there. Love the shades and the variegated colors will really add life to it.
