Am still hooking on the farm menagerie rug awaiting the start date of the hook along. If I didn't have this to work on I'd probably start Hearts and Squares early.
Some of the critters (chicks and rabbits) are so small it is hard to get a good shape hooking them. For those I'm cutting #8.5 strips in half. Can see I've lost the shape of the horse's face, which is hooked in a wider cut. Will try to fix that. And what to do with the house color? I don't want white. Maybe a pale yellow but wanted yellow for the star. And don't really want white for the star either. Maybe I'll try a log cabin for the house.
Below is the original rug and at first I didn't know what the ladder or blocks were on the left and right side of the rug. Then decided it must be a fence.
Nothing monumental in the post, just me working my thought process through you on this format. Hope everyone has a pleasant day....and happy hooking.

You are making progress...more than I can say about my hooking...sigh.
ReplyDeleteKeep it up ;-) Lookin' good.
I find choosing colors daunting….for anything.Clothes, wall paint and definitely crafting projects if they don’t come with a color key. Gee, I kinda like the little white house as it is in the original
