Let's take a look at some old rugs and make plans for a future project.
A primitive hooked pup with leaf corners for a quickie little mat.
Perhaps hooking a rug for a family of a WWII veteran who fought ~ this rug with V, obviously stands for Victory in 1944. Dimensions of this old rug is 39 x 46. A Waldoboro floral dated between 1840-50. I won't be doing this one but there probably some fancy floral folks out there who would.
This isn't my cup of tea either, but it has everything...animals, birds, pots and flowers. But thought I'd share this garden of chaos with you.
Am always looking for rugs that can benefit from our every growing collection of wooly worms. Here's one that has a mellowed look to it and I find it more to my liking than the rug above.
While I have no date on this cats and floral rug you can see it is definitely an oldie. Click on it to enlarge and enjoy it's beauty. A lovely rug of an eagle with shield and 2 stars. It has fringe around the perimeter. I'm considering hooking another magnificent eagle rug but don't think this one will be it. I've a few others in my files.
Maple sugaring in Vermont, no date or dimensions. So glad that the white stuff falling on the ground date is behind me now. Think spring really is close at hand.
Sorry it is such a pitiful rug posting, and believe it or not I only save those rug photos which appeal to me slightly, lol.
Happy hooking and can't wait for Lauren (Rugs and Pugs) to get her butt home and do a post of her progress and rug show photos before she turns around and does it all over again.
