As Promised ~

Here's what little hooking I have gotten accomplished in the last month or so.  Pretty pathetic I might add!

I hooked 6 of what I call coneflowers.  The pattern called for hot gluing them closed, but I thought the seam would be better sewn (a real pain!!!).  I don't know why but every one ended up kind of pointy.  I still need to gather sticks and add wool leaves.  I think if I stuff them a bit with fiberfill the point won't be as noticeable.  At least that is what I am hoping.  Pattern by the Wooly Horse.

I haven't pulled a loop on my Santa in forever.  I really don't have that much more to hook.  I thought the black border was a bit harsh, but Sibyl Osicka, the queen of small cuts, said it was just fine.  Not sure how much was done when last posted.

Last but not least, Proud Lion.  Some progress made but I thought by now I would be finished.  The best laid plans of mice and men . . . sigh.

Thanks so much for stopping by.
Harper hugs 😊

Santa's beard doesn't look so overwhelmingly dark as I remember. Proud Lion is looking...well, might proud and I like him.

Ohhh I love those cone flowers!! I have never seen those before. You have projects like me I feel like I have them everywhere! My large rug, my flower basket rug, and I need to start something else for a rug school in November. I am stitching that Halloween sampler and of course I want to paint more. I am retired and do not have enough time!!!
