A colorful rug of a cottage with 2 chimneys, no date or dimensions provided. Think I know someone who will like this, right Elaine?
This next one takes time to decipher ~ it's a deer and rabbit. Too much going on for me with the elaborate border and elements inside. It measures a whopping 68 x 94.
It definitely was hooked and not manufactured as here is a close up of deer face.
A more calming rug is bowl of flowers.
A chair pad hooked on burlap, 15.5 x 15.5.
Another Eagle rug but this one with a rattlesnake. The rattlesnake has been used in the "don't tread on me" or Gadsden flag. You can read about the Gadsden flag HERE.
Another big rug of a cat which could be given a name of Whiskers, measures 42 x 52. The border is rather busy. It was hooked early 20th century. Here's another busy background with kittens. It was hooked early 20th century and measures 29 x 42.
With limited colors this rooster and hen rug looks great. Size is 33 x 38.
Think this post needs a dog and a horse to make it complete. Here's a prancing red horse hooked early 20th century.
A hooked and shirred rug, no date provided but measures 26 x 49.5. Am going to venture outside this chilly day, pick up pinecones and cut the weeds in the very front yard. Not sure how it will go in the backyard as the overgrown lake still resides back there with this low elevation property. But in the afternoon I'll be hooking and binding. Oh, and doing some sketching for a future pattern or two.

I have multiple favorites here! The cottage is enchanting,tulips are so pretty especially drooping as they like to do, the chickens are just wonderful and I smiled at the horse showing a little attitude. I continue to be amazed at what detail hookers can achieve
ReplyDeleteI like the English Cottage & the Tulips .....The Deer & Rabbitt is pretty amazing how the hooker has so much going on , wonder if those are all her favorite things
ReplyDeleteI like the cottage and horse one. The dog looks like one you did as a tribute to one of your dogs to me. Janice
ReplyDeleteI am always amazed at the quantity of rugs you find!

Rugs and Pugs
Like Lauren, I'm always impressed by the "new" "old" rugs you come up with. In my scrollings and tumbles into those obsequious rabbit holes, I get excited when I think one pops up that I think I can share with you as one you might not know of...only to see it is attributed to "Saundra of Woodland Junction" LOL. It's finally raining here (vs. snowing/icing...at least so far...I'll take it.).
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is the English cottage, but since I am so into cats right now, I'll give Whiskers a close second. Always fun to see these old rugs!
ReplyDeleteI didn't even see the deer until I saw the close up. :) Then went back and Ok there it is. The white areas popped out to me.
ReplyDeleteAnother great show. I have two good sized rugs going at once it is crazy I have never done that before and I hope too never do it again. Plus summer is rolling around and I will not be hooking as much.
