Saturday Stuff ~

Happy Saturday :)  I love being retired ~ every day can be Saturday if I so choose.

Each year when un-decorating, I miss a thing or two, but it has never taken me until the end of February to find everything.  This is what I discovered last night.  How in the heck did I never notice? 

Ticklepie, a "noreply-comment blogger" was asking about the rug behind the hearts.

It is an antique adaptation and the pattern can be found in Polly Minick's book, The Spirit of Sacajawea.  The finished size is approximately 30" x 45" and each cross is about 4".  It's a great rug to use up worms, though I barely made a dent :)

After not working on my camp rug from last April for many, many months, I finally dyed the wool for the border.  It is just a bit lighter than the background and is also hooked in the antigodlin style.  I am still not a fan of hooking that way.  I like the look . . . just don't like hooking it.  The border is actually 1/3 the area of the rug so I will be working on it for a while.  I would like to get it done before camp this year.

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Pug hugs :)
