As I'm real close to being done with Animals Great and Small thought I'd hunt for the next favorite thing to hook. I do have a smallish pattern drawn but want to see if there is something more exciting to hook. AG&S set the standard high. The horse rug below has been on my watch list for a while and always get denied the spotlight.
Also like this 1809 hooked rug but wouldn't do that busy border as there is still plenty of interest on the inside.
The double rooster below is reminiscent of a Magdalena and could put it to use on the kitchen floor. Guess for now it will be the smallish already drawn pattern. But stick around because I'm fickle and just might find 'the one'.
Now for the PSA. For you bloggers do you ever go into the belly of your blog and check your 'comments'? They may or may not show up in your previous posts. However, I don't want to take a chance the infiltrator/spammer may have a virus or could be snatching my personal information. Yesterday I had a few comments from one spammer, not a rug hooker, and deleted a few spam messages.
This morning I found these, and that is just what the eye captured on one screen, and scrolled way down to see even more.
Wish I'd kept count of how many spam comments this Hunn person made but it took me several minutes to remove them and guess probably had over 100 to remove.
Back to work play on my rug project. Happy hooking on the frigid day.

I used to get a lot of spams long ago too ....one reason why I stopped posting . I have only gotten a few recently .
ReplyDeleteHope these aren't hackers !
All the above patterns look like you would have fun hooking them !
Hope you didn't get too much snow .
If you dont like the busy border on the second rug like I dont, maybe just hook the inner border and call it a day. Janice
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you'll settle on "the one after" soon enough. You sure do like your horses, though, so I'm sure you couldn't go wrong there. Wish I could find my mojo - whether hooking, stitching or whatever. Just the thought of it hurts my head and makes me wan to curl into a ball and sleep. ~Robin~
ReplyDeleteReally like the first horse - well and the roosters too. I'm so slow at hooking.
ReplyDeleteI’m sure you will find the perfect antique rug that will be screaming your name. And then you will have your unnamed plus one! No moss growing under your hook 😊
