Just a quickie post to show you my two recent finishes. The scrappy mat is hooked and I must say, I love it. Unfortunately it did not make a dent in my worms :(
I need a quick little gift, so with Valentine's Day fast approaching, I thought a little heart mat would be apropos. I went to the worm box and gathered reds that I thought would work together. There are probably 12-15 different wools.
This is the background wool. I cut it against the stripe.
Finished it measures 6 3/4" x 8 1/2".
Now I need to start binding. UGH!
Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs :)

Your "hit and miss" rug is gorgeous, Lauren! I've never done a hit or miss design. Your little heart mats are so sweet!! I can't wait to see you & Melissa at Sauder next week!!!
Two beautiful finishes!!! Not sure which I love better LOL... The hit-n-miss though intrigues me always as I think I am just too OCD to really do it LOL (so, to answer the unasked question, NO, I have never done a hit-n-miss ha ha). Lucky giftee of the heart mat.... Robin
They are both beautiful and love the wool shades.

love,love,love!

You're on a roll Lauren. I really love those rich earthy colors. Now be a good girl and go finish those hems. lol...
Hugs, Julia

Love them both! Just wonderful, and an art I wish I knew how to do!
I like them all. You do such a nice job of hooking.
What a beautiful hit and miss . You're heart mat is very sweet. Thanks for sharing

Both pieces are delightful. Should be hooking something in the heart vein myself but sadly am not. And yeah, that darn binding thing. My Star geometric still isn't bound.
I always love your hearts Lauren! But your hit and miss is nice too! I drew out a few that I want to hook now. Both for Spring. We will see if I finish. Janice
Look at you knocking those finishes out!! Love them both, but especially the Hit or Miss. They are always my favorites.
I love both your little mats! I have a small black cricket stool that needs something, I think that hit or miss design would be perfect! Happy weekend:) Stay warm. Melinda
You and Saundra are amazing with all you are getting accomplished. I love both pieces.

Both are lovely finishes. Love the little heart especially. Isn't it funny how the finishing finishing is always the part that you say ugh to? lol! I find it to be the same with knitting (sewing on the buttons to two cardigans just hasn't happened!), and in cross stitch. lol!
You've hooked the hit 'n miss exquisitely.And quickly, wow! I love the heart too. Lucky receiver!
Love that little heart mat...the background wool makes for some nice soft texture... dreamy! :-)
