A True Friend ~

 
I don't have the time this evening to sort through any Sauder pictures, so I will quickly share the rug that is FINALLY on the frame.
 
Cammie Bruce, Primitive Junky, has the most fun patterns.  You can find them in her Etsy shop.
 
 
I am deviating from the pattern to hook it Ellen style.   

 
Looking at Ellie's picture, I see where I need to change her chest to white.  I've also shortened her ears a bit.  
 
 
If you are looking for a candle that smells heavenly and burns cleanly, head on over to Kohl's.  This $19.99 candle was 50% off (of course) and I had a 30% coupon.  Woo hoo.  Only $7.00 for a really good candle.  So good that I had to go back and buy a few more before my coupon expired.  They know a sucker when they see one :)
 

Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs :)

    I love Ellie's look. She seems to think it's grand that you're hooking her portrait. I can only imagine the scent of that candle. Smart of you to strike while the iron is hot.
    Those coupons comes in handy.

    It's so hot here even at night that I can't believe I said "strike while the iron is hot, hehe.

    Hope you have a A/C. I don't have one and have to suck it up but I'm doing it in style with a glass of vino. I even got 15 minutes of hooking in that heat.
    Hugs,
    JB

    I'll bet it smells good enough to want to eat it.

    I have loved that pattern from the first. I love her patterns.
    I think it will look wonderful as Ellie.
    Oh, gosh, it must be getting fall. It is so hot here, I couldn't even think of a candle yet. :)
    I bet it smells so nice and fall like. I was drawing out rug patterns tonight. Like I need some more. :) Have a great evening, Lauren

    That is a cute pattern, I need to do one of Bean. I love caramel scents and in NH, there is a shop that has the best smelling candles, will have to stop there if I can and see if they still have them, my son loved the ones we got him, so good for Christmas presents too.
