MOTHER'S DAY RUG SHOW

Happy Mother's Day, here's a bouquet of flowers made with standing wool and applique for each of you.  No estimate of age was provided.
This bird rug was promoted as an antique Charlevoix, Quebec folk art rug.  Dimensions are 21 x 38 but no date hooked given.
A landscape hooked early 20th century measuring 24 x 36.  
Hooked runner with a dog cameo near the center (21.5 x 53.5).  No date was provided but certainly looks aged to me.  Love the various background colors.
Below is the primitive eagle I wrote about.  Perhaps it was a chair pad by the shape and size, it measures 13.5 x 14.  The colors may throw you off a little but remember this person used what was on hand.  You could do a rectangular shape and put flags on the sides, hook 1776, or whatever comes to you creative mind.  A small easy hook with little detail in the face.
A worn rug with stars and diamond border.  No date offered but it measures 20 x 35.  Personally I'd forego the busy diamond shaped border.
Soft to the eyes hit and miss with flowers, dated the 1930's.
Another worn rug, a geometric which has mellowed with age.
A cowgirl circa 1920's.  Oh how I would have loved this for my bedroom as a kid.
This cat doesn't appear to be old, but saw it on a Leatherwood Antiques posting.  Plus it is all I have for the feline lovers right now.
Again, Happy Mother's Day.

  2. Happy Mother's Day! Love the florals and the Landscape. The cat is pretty neat looking too (although I am more of a dog lover) That's some amazing dimension the hooker achieved on the cat's bow.

  3. I am with you! I would have loved that rug for my bedroom as a girl. I lived and breathed horses. I also really like that landscape rug with the wash hanging on the line. That is a nice rug too. Is your leg almost healed? I hope so. I hope you have a wonderful day.

  6. Happy Mother's Day night. That cat rug may not be antique, but does look vintage. So sweet! I also like the geometric one. The dog cameo one only makes me wonder about the design...why the checkerboard to the right? It almost makes me think that the dog is thinking about a rug to curl up on...kinda like the words in a bubble thing. Hope your day was good.
