Back to Ezras Farm

This is it, Ezra's Farm again.  Nothing new on the frame, and right now I'm content as I want this one finished before moving onto something else.  You may recall I drew and hooked a flag instead of the blocks.  Also drew stars instead of the circles next to the house.
When putting Ezra's Farm back on the frame the first place I looked for wool was in the appropriate color wool worm baggies.  I'd rather use up precut wool before cutting more.  So the complete house was hooked using wool from the brown  and white bags.  And the wool used at the very bottom was from the brown wool bag.  Not that you'd notice anything missing.

Now to the flower stem, it was also from the green wool worm bag, uh, and the white flower from the same white wool baggie.  The blue background, however, will be a combination of the piece you see placed to the left plus similar wool strips from the light blue wool worm bag.  
Just hope I've enough to fill in that space.  And if not I'll just grab some worms and use those to fill in toward the bottom of the flower.  I'll worry about the other blocks when I get to them.

There has been rain every day since Monday and storm caused a 5 hour power outage last night.  Thunderstorm will come thru again this evening and rain predicted thru Saturday.  The only reason there isn't a lake out back is because it was so dry.  Seems it's either feast or famine.  My heart still aches for those families in Texas.

  1. I like your changes and good for you for using up your worms.
    We have had showers off and on today but we have been so hot and now it is cooler but the humidity is there that great swampy feeling.

  2. I LOVE this rug! I can't believe you've not zoomed through it. Everything (meaning your hooking) is so very neat and tidy. I've never gotten the knack of worms/scraps. I used to save what was left for each rug/mat separately (you know, in case I needed to replace a loop or something (highly unlikely since my rugs don't go on the floor). Now, I've gotten a bit braver and let go of that habit...but I still have issues with mixing different cuts (so, I have blues...but some are 7, some 8, some 8.5, some 9, etc.) Yes, I find myself hard to live with.
