IT'S RUG SHOW TIME AGAIN

Not mine, but vintage and antique rugs.  Up first is a horse, circa 1900 with dimensions of 28.5 x 35.5.
Frankly I've many more horse rugs, so here's another.  This one is still listed for sale.  No date provided.
Grey horses, no information on this either.  And I've more horses on my flash drive but will not bore you with more this show.
A naive hooked lion, circa 1890-1930 from Barbara Johnson collection.  Dimensions are 28 x 38.5.
Two cats playing with a red ball of yarn.  Have no info on date or dimensions.
A geometric with pinwheel center hooked early 20th century and from Lancaster county, PA.  Measures 25 x 44.5.
Another geometric, this one measures 27 x 38 but have no date hooked as none was provided by the auction company.
Below is a half oval floral, could be a rug at a doorway or chair pad.  No date or dimensions.
A dog hooked early 20th century measuring 23 x 46.
Wish I had some information on the patriotic rug below.  It is naive and primitive and appears old, but cannot confirm that since there was no information.  Hope some of you are thinking about hooking a patriotic rug in celebration of America's 250th Birthday, it would be such a memorable heirloom for the family.  
Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.  It's supposed to rain here all weekend, and have already had rain showers this afternoon once I got the grass cut...or at least most of it.

  1. I wish I could find it in me to start my eagle rug....I'd never, ever, get it done by the 4th - or even by the end of the year but I know I'd still enjoy hooking ON it "in the season," but I can't seen to find it in me. This funk runs deeper than my other funks. We had storms and rain last night/early early this morning but the sun came out a few hours ago. Woo hoo. Have to hurry to see it before I blink.
