Thought I'd show you an update of 1776 Eagle. It won't be all hooked before heading to camp this coming Sunday but Lollipop Flowers will be bound by then. Which means I'll have the new project, the eagle and the plus one. Essentially I will end up with plus two, lol. But the circles rug was intended to be an ongoing project whenever, between rugs, so no rush to get it done.
I'm loving how this is turning out and took a photo of the wool being used for the eagle body and wings.
Happy hooking.

Just majestic. Happy Halloween! Janice
ReplyDeleteAnother masterpiece!
ReplyDeleteI am not a fan of reverse hooking, but me thinks an outline change to the darker brown scrap would look really good.
Another amazing job,,,,
ReplyDeleteLove the textures,,,
The bird is looking good, I like that you are hooking the wings in the direction the feathers go in real life.
ReplyDeleteQuestion - when using striped fabrics, do they get cut with the stripes or across the stripes? Or does it differ depending on the project, the size of stripes, or what look is preferred?
I really like how you have hooked the wings ! Will be another Beauty !!
ReplyDeleteLovely hooking....that dark background makes the eagle absolutely take flight. Love it! ~Robin~
ReplyDeleteloving how the stripes on his wings mimic feathers...try the dark wool for the top...if in doubt, then rip it out ;)
