On the Flip Side

Well finally drew another grandson rug on the flip side of the other one. Hopefully this will work better for me.  The logos and Zach's name have been enlarged a tad and the flags have been spread out a bit to extend further across the top.  

The room at the top left and right will have my initials on one side and the year 2016 on the other.  I will still sew a label on the back but if that label should become disconnected wanted the info hooked into the rug.  In case you've forgotten what I previously drew you can see it below.

When transferring the Redskins logo, sadly my newest drawing has a bad nose on the Redskins logo.  The transfer fabric or my pen slid so will rectify that during hooking.

In an effort to de-stash I've been busy listing some of my stitchery designs on eBay.  I figure if they sell it will be a couple bucks in my pocket rather than getting nothing in return by taking them to the thrift shop.  And, who knows if they would end up in their dumpster anyway.   I'm listing some red work, The Basket Case 12 month Angel series and a few others.  What doesn't get listed by the end of the day will be listed next weekend as I want to hook on my cat mat so that my grandson's rug can get started soon.

Happy Sunday.

Guess What Time It Is

Since it is the first day of October it must be time for the monthly stitchery and applique quilt pieces to make their appearance.  It is hard to believe it is October already and soon we'll be in the holiday season again.

This applique' was one of 12 designs by Indygo Junction.  As has been explained before, the 1997 date is the year the house was to be completed and wanted to document that on the quilt pieces.

This stitchery with the October angel is one of 12 designs by I Done My Best.   I have been informed the information of the designer isn't who I thought but rather is the work of Nancy Huggins of The Basket Case x Needlework Therapy.   So sorry to have given the incorrect information for those of you who may be seeking out the designs for yourself.

Both of these were done way before I'd been bitten by the hooking bug and don't have any desire to do embroidery any longer.  However, those Indygo Junction designs could easily be adapted to a rug pattern and there are a few I've considered doing just that.

Thanks for stopping by for a brief look and a quick 'howdy'.  Have a great day.
