JUST THE BEGINNING

Yes, it's at least a start and with the pending weather I'll have plenty of time to pull some loops without feeling guilty for not working in the yard.  Weatherman said with the cold front coming in there will probably be thunder around 10 p.m. when the cold hits the warm like a tone of bricks.  We will get rain but not enough to cause flooding but probably not enough to cure our drought either.  But at least some rain but with some high winds so there will be limbs to pick up after it is over.

Anyway, so far I've just used wool from my woolie worms and will continue to do that until the colors I need aren't handy.
In case you'd like to see the original Magdalena Animal Parade rug here it is below.
Well hell's bells.  The wool I chose is much too bright compared to Magdalelna's, but sure seemed it worked when sitting under the OTT light and checking the photo.  Actually looking at the paper print out as well as the rug on my iPad.  How could I have made such a drastic error in color choices?

So I just might be 'beginning again' tomorrow.  Perhaps the rest of the evening I'll work on binding the Giant Flower rug while I ponder whether to rip out what I've hooked or just decide that it is, after all, an adaptation of an antique.  Hope I'll come to a decision as I "sleep on it".
