Oh boy, I know that word "Confession" got your attention, didn't it? But first, the group has expanded with some gals figuring out how to fix or circumvent the No-Reply Blogger issue. But Linda wants to join and is a No-Reply. I've decided this Friday will be the deadline to join.
Wow, 15 17 people have joined and I'm honored that you've selected this as a challenge. It will be quite a challenge for me too and I love antique rugs. But I've never hooked an entire piece using textiles our foremothers used. Also will use one of my antique hooks (for as long as I can) which seems so small to pull those hefty pieces of homespun cotton, but they used to do just that. Am sure I'll be grabbing my Hartman tout de suite.
Okay, now you ready for this....the CONFESSION? This is the design I chose to hook for the challenge. But....you all know I'm a fickle hooker, I've told you that numerous times.
Have decided to hook a smaller piece, lol. I'm going with the majority and have decided to hook the Tulip! There, you heard it here first. Think I bit off more than I could chew with the larger Shield, the Tulip is cute and achievable in a shorter time ~ particularly since I'm the administrator of this challenge.
Now for those ADMINISTRATIVE DUTIES: As people have signed up several have inquired if folks would be sending updates on their accomplishments. And I would hope so and I could do a blog post with pictures/comments from participants on what they have done every couple days. I'm sure many would like to know what fabrics you're using for which design and maybe even see a photo of your progress.
I plan to do a post tomorrow showing what I'll be using to hook the Tattered Tulip. But since there are new participants lets give them and you a chance to gather your stuff and plan to give me an email, pictures, and info on what you're doing on Friday, 2/19.
Gotta get myself busy switching color plan from patriotic to flower. Have a great evening and happy hooking. Hope everyone is warm and so sorry for those freezing in Texas and the tornado victims.
