Let the Show Begin

Definitely don't want the snow to begin as I've had my fill of that white stuff to last me a few years after Monday's snow and then had another inch or so on Friday.  Enough all ready.

Hen and Baby Chick I've had saved on my flash drive since 2018.  Don't have dimensions or date.

Have had this Grey Cat since 2018 also and don't know why I haven't shown it.  Said to be hooked 1900's from an estate sale but no dimensions.

A close up of the underside.  Wonder if this is what gave Karen Kahle the inspiration for one or two of her designs?

Hooked and sewn Lion and Trees measures 31 x 51 from a private collector.

I hooked that design in a class with Barb Carroll in 2012 and here is how she color planned it for me.  The color is not showing up right per usual.

Moose Adirondack rug measuring 20 x 30 hooked with stockings, this is the front.

A view of the back and is only faded a little, you can see it was hooked on burlap.

Recently found this rug with 3 blue and red  flowers on oval background.  It measures 23 x 40 and said to be hooked 19th century.  It's a sweet dainty rug and I love that border.

A Butterfly rug hooked early 20th century measuring 19.5 x 34.  This is the front.

And a view of the backside.

I try to guess what the favorite rug will be and me thinks it will be the first one.  In other news I did finish binding Bird Dog and finished hooking Winter Buddies too, now just need to bind that one.

Am staying true to my promise of waiting until the 15th to start hooking my Granny Donaldson choice of designs until Lauren is ready.  But I've heard from Sheila who said she's drawn hers out and Elaine said she's planning to draw hers out today too.  I'll make another blog post next week about the Granny event so stay tuned.

Happy hooking or binding y'all 😉
