A Reprieve From my Hooked Rugs

There were more rugs and smaller mats hooked during this year and all have been bound.  But thought I'd give you a break to show the other pattern I drew.  You saw the small Sunflower Mat and want to finish it so will concentrate on it the next couple days.  

Finally decided to hook a design I named Lisa's Horse since she is the one who asked me to draw it for her.  As previously stated, at first I was gung-ho to hook it too but after struggling to draw a straight pattern from a photo taken at an angle just wasn't ready.

This will be the pattern I work on before Bev gets to me at camp so am taking a critical look to see if I want to change values anywhere.  After all, the antique is rather faded so the key will be value change.

Not so sure I like the background between the hind leg and tail.  Or perhaps a very thin dark line behind the back leg to separate would do the job.
How about that...a short, sweet and to the point blog post 😁.  

Today was an abnormally hot and humid day and will be the same tomorrow.  Thank goodness got the grass cut and can concentrate on getting ready for camp.  Just 5 days and a wake up before I head to Cape May.  Won't start packing the suitcase until Thursday or Friday after checking a 10-day weather report for Cape May.

Happy hooking and hope all of you at Cape May this week are having a terrific time.  Hope someone will post photos of Wednesday's rug show on Facebook or send them to me.
