I thought I could, I thought I could. In other words, I didn't succumb to the temptation of putting Crossed Flags aside to start Magdalena's Double Horses early. It was steamed today and might start binding today during The Five; maybe.
Here are the other two sections already completed ~ The Golden Eagle from the center of the antique triptych rug.
The Eagle resides on the wall in the office along with art prints and Naval documents associated with my step-father CPO E.C. Patterson. Once Crossed Flags is steamed and bound I'll need to rearrange the wall to include one or both of the other two rugs.
Here is a photo of the hooked but not bound Crossed Flags.
And although I've posted this numerous times before, here is the original antique Patriotic Triptych rug.

Congratulations on both your stick-to it-ness and a wonderful finish!
ReplyDeleteYou are simply amazing!
ReplyDeleteOh it looks so good where you placed it on the wall. I knew you could finish it..and a great finish it was. Janice
ReplyDeleteThese are all Beautiful rugs !!!
ReplyDeleteYay you! Looks great - and, as I said, your next start will be all the sweeter. You'd be proud of me...I actually finally got my Welcome Cats rug hung on the wall. Took years (literally) to hook, then more years to bind, but only a little over a year (or has it been 2 already?) to get it on the wall. But...hope you're sitting down....I actually pulled a few loops too the past several days! (Saundra? Saundra!! Are you ok??!!! Didn't mean to shock you so!)
ReplyDeleteYou actually found your mojo! Welcome back Mo.
DeleteYour patriotic rugs are a real treasure. You did a great job as usual.
ReplyDeleteI had stopped by your blog several days ago and as I was leaving a comment, a box popped up with a warning and said something to the effect that my passwords were being shared. I got concerned about some malware and exited without leaving a comment.
Take care, hugs.
