Another Rug is Bound ~

 
 
What a great feeling to have all my rugs bound.  Here is Stag, pattern by Lori Rippey, finally finished.  He will be rolled up and put away until next Christmas.  It's a terrible problem not having places to put all my rugs :)

 
I've also finished the last two hearts, hooked with handtorn strips.  The wool is similar on both fronts, so the backs were finished with the same wools.  They are stuffed with snippets and some heavenly lavender.  I still have several pumpkins to finish this way, but since they are not rugs, they don't count as not bound in my world :)


Tomorrow I leave for Sauder Village for two days of hooking heaven.  It's something I look forward to every year.  My hooking supplies are packed and ready to go, but still need to pack my clothes.  I left work sick today which is a rarity, so I do hope I am over this by tomorrow.
 
Because I have THE BEST readers, I am giving away one of my hearts.  The rules are simple ~ leave a comment on this post or send me an email with give away in the subject line.  The winner will be chosen next Wednesday and must contact me within three days or I will choose another. 
 
Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs :)
Lauren
