Several years ago I recall a hooker (can't remember who) would speak of "the never ending rug". I did a quick google search and nothing came up in the search. Perhaps it was based on the same sentiment I have for this one which will always be known to me as 'the forever floral'.
Am sure you have noticed my continual changes of size or shape of flowers and leaves but am still struggling with colors. Have tried to pull most colors from the worm bags yet am cutting background colors with the occasional darker spots of worms worked into the background.
Something that continues to bug me are those "floating leaves" which dear friend and respected hooker critic Julia mentioned in an earlier post. Julia, you are right and that's why it still bugs me. But at this point I want to move forward rather than making backward steps. Okay, so ya ready? Here's the new photo. OH!!!! plus I'm not pleased with the flower under the blue one on the left.
Tomorrow is going to be a rainy day here so not sure if I'll continue to work on this or switch to the Woman on Horseback. It really is a pain to switch over to other wool colors, but more than that is losing the mind's momentum on a rug. Stay tuned to see what I decide and would love to see what each of your are working on.
Sorry many of my friends are having several inches of snow or rain/landslides. Tomorrow there will be more rain here but thank goodness won't have worry about the landslides or earthquakes I experienced when living in northern California.
Happy hooking.
