Antique Rugs with Scrolls

My next project is already planned and drawn but am getting antsy to hook another rug with scrolls.  I've only hooked one and would have only attempted that since it was in a Barb Carroll class.  For some reason I thought they were frightening to hook but Barb released me from the fear of working on scrolls.  

Here is a nice one of a lone Dove with scrolls.
This 19th century floral I recently showed on my blog and would be a good candidate.  Dimensions of the antique are 32 x 59.
Another floral with classic style scrolls.
The Acorns and Scrolls below is a beauty.   Measures 29 x 50, Provenance Mary Cardin Quinn
Deer with flowers and scrolls but don't think that will be in the running.
Oh my, this one has been on my 'to do' list for some time now.  Hooked early 20th century it measures 22 x 35.
This big leaf scroll border would be a little much for me to handle me thinks.
Birds and primitive scrolls also looks like a good candidate.
Another beautiful floral with a scroll border and I've already drawn the pattern for someone else so that would eliminate one of the steps.
A Blue Bunny with primitive scrolls said to be hooked 1900 and measures 30 x 54.
Floral and Scrolls is beautiful but think it would need to be enlarged to a size beyond my desire to hook.
Two Lions facing with undefined primitive scrolls.
Nice rolling scrolls and as an extra added bonus, a horse.  Hooked 19th century, measures 30 x 48.5 and being sold by Art Institute of Chicago.
And another previously shown antique with scrolls is Two Doves in a Tree.  And it was recently hooked by a friend who did a marvelous job on it.  
When it comes time for me to put a scroll pattern on linen I will refer to this blog post and review them again.  At least the ones that interest  me are all collected here in one spot.  Happy hooking everyone.
