Am still enjoying pulling loops on Magdalena's Animal Parade. So no need for that plus one pattern yet. I like everything so far but perhaps had a glitch which hasn't been worked out because of time restraints on wanting to post an update this evening. It's the bird on the bottom left.
Here is a cropped image of the bird from the original rug.
Think the outline color I chose is too large and too red but hope to have that figured out before my next update. I've taken a few liberties in my adaptation of this antique but that bold outline won't be one of them.

Wind gusts and low temperatures have been horrid last night and today. I awoke with many limbs, some as large as my arm, broken over night. The limbs behind the doors of my garage I removed but it was so cold and windy that I came back inside after that.
Thank goodness my trash and recycle had been picked up yesterday or the trash would have been blown over and everything strewn throughout the neighborhood. Temps will be lower than normal again tonight and weatherman says with the wind the feel real will be in the low teens. Hello winter!
Hope you are keeping warm and entertained inside, happy hooking or whatever else makes yours bells jingle.

You are making great progress on Animal Parade and I know it's a biggie.
ReplyDeleteWith gusts up to 47 mph this morning, our wind chill was at -4. UGH!
We're a balmy 8º right now...without the windchill...but it's a welcome change because the howling winds have finally abated...not completely....but definitely an improvement. You're really cruising along with this. I still love the 3 kitties. I know you're sound asleep at this point but, here in Nod, it's still your birthday. One last "Happy Birthday" hurrah going up! ;-) ~Robin~

ReplyDeleteIt is freezing here too , windy & just too cold . No walking outside with a thin later of icy patches on my walking path.
You rug is looking great , just love how you get your colors to look nice & old .
It was 19 this morning Two days ago we had the wind and lost power for hours. Today is cloudy and calm and dreary like. Good day for cleaning since I was on the couch all day yesterday with some kind of bug. Feel good now. Rug is coming along great. Janice
