WHERE DID MY DAY GO?

What a timely and perfect title to my blog.  And thanks to friend blogger Cathy of Acorn Hollow for providing the idea for my post since that was the title of her last post.  

This morning after breakfast I started drawing patterns.  Most were Dancing Rabbits patterns but there were three other designs ordered too.  Since I'm a one woman operation it's me cutting and serging the linen and drawing so only accomplished one pattern before lunch.  Then went back to draw more but quit just before 5 p.m. to watch The Five.  Then another order for rabbits came in so will finish drawing and ship the patterns tomorrow.

Here's what has been ordered.  What took most of my morning was drawing the Cottage and Apple Tree.  I had to really concentrate on the tree limbs and apple's as it is easy to get confused as to where the limb and the background were because of the location of the apples.

Five Dancing Rabbits patterns, some with border some without. 

One Ali Katz small (without the zig zag border ends).

And one Mache' Jacks.

Or at least that's all on the schedule so far.  In queue tomorrow will be to finish Ali Katz and draw the last order for Dancing Rabbits with border.  Wish I could be more creative in my blog post this evening but I feel brain dead and tired.  BUT!  Not too tired to pull some loops.

What's Cooking in Rug Hooking

First of all, March winds have been very high, and when parking beside another car one must hold the door to ensure it doesn't hit and dent the next car.  Just hope others are as thoughtful when they park beside me.  So decided it was time to bring out the rug Windy Day, a pattern found on W.Cushing.

A Dancing Rabbit finish I've been waiting for is from Kitty with the polka dot rabbits.

More new wabbit wugs have come in and here is one hooked by Beth.  Actually she has a hooked version, which she says will go on top of an old picnic basket ... 

..and a needle punch version; you've been busy gal.

Naomi is hooking a whole family of rabbits.  Had to laugh at a comment she made when saying her brain goes right to the Grateful Dead dancing bears and this is her adaptation.   But despite that I think it would make an adorable rug for a child's room.

Nancy has been working on her background and creative border so it won't be long before she's completely done.  

Laurel finished hooking her rabbits and says she's thinking of doing a mix of colors for the background.  Can't wait to see what she does.

What great imaginations you rug hookers have.  Amazing to see how ordinary rabbits can take on a personality all their own.  Happy Hooking.
