FINALLY!

Primitive Chickens, a 12" x 36" pattern by Hooked on the Lake is finally finished.  It was started in a class with Katie Hartner of the Woolley Fox on March 16.  For whatever reason I continually drug my feet and would only spend a short time each day working on it.  It's not like I was hooking something else at the same time!  I am just glad it is done.  Now on to the least favorite part (right Saundra?) prepping for binding, steaming and then binding.  I don't think the binding fairy will show up and do it for me.  I know there are people who finish rugs for a price, but I am too cheap to even consider that.  I'd rather use that $$ to buy more wool 😁  Lousy color as usual . . . but the feet/legs do show up a little better in person.

For you cat lovers . . .

Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs 😊

  1. Excellent chickens and enjoyed the cat “fact”. I’m more of a dog person but son and fiancé have 2 cats that have purred their way into my heart. Have fun bindings your chicks!

  3. Your rug turned out wonderful and it's all hooked now. Right, it's my least favorite part for sure. I'm too cheap to pay someone to bind my rugs too and will make a deal telling myself that binding for an hour during a news show makes it easier. But for me the lie works, lol.
    Think that MEOW meme was meant for Robin, lol.
