Harvey's Magdalena is slowly coming together. Hey y'all, I've hooked a much bigger piece in a month's time so this is taking me a while and not making me happy. But then I did start my son's rug and have been busy drawing and shipping patterns so have not been a slouch.
This is what it looks like now. Yes, I see those bright whites/blue whites and two of them must be pulled out. So next picture will have a bit of a change there.
I'd considered attempting the beer mugs tonight since I've poured myself a glass of wine courage. Instead think I'll remove those bright whites...two of them anyway, and replace those with something more soothing to the eye in contrast with the rest of the piece.
For any newbies who don't know, Magdalena Briner Eby hooked rugs in and around 1880 in Pennsylvania. Antique lovers adore her works and hookers love replicating her works. She was a prolific hooker who would probably be shocked by her popularity today.
Have a great Monday evening.
