Let's go back to 2016 when the Out of Hand Rughookers Group hosted a "Spring Challenge". The great design was by Kelley Belfast who was inspired by the spring daffodils in bloom at the time. There were limited rules and a deadline in order to be included for a prize. Each of the registered challenge entrants were allowed to vote.
Although I didn't capture photos of all entries here are the ones saved on my flash drive. There was a bounty of nice prizes provided by Lori Brechlin who is the hostess of the Group.
First rug was hooked by Joanne Miller. That Honeycomb wool is a great one to have in your stash because it is so versatile.
The colorful rug below hooked by Louise Budde.
Peggy Skulski hooked the black sheep version.
Below is Gladys LaForge's version of the design and looks like her daffodils were done in proddy.
Jean Bartel chose a more neutral color palate.
Karin Manuel decided her sheep was a grey one.
Below was my entry and I also chose to do proddy daffodils
Anne Donaldson also chose a more colorful wool palate with her sheep standing in a field of daffodils.
Linda Mageske decided to make hers round and have the American flag fly proudly.
This rug below was hooked by Shari VanArt with her sheep standing on a spot where two vine-like flowers are growing.
Thanks to Lori for hosting the challenge and to Kelley for her design.
