I am still meeting myself coming and going, but by 8AM tomorrow I better be ready to go!
Yesterday was the Ft. Laurens Rug Hookers annual hook in. What a class act they are! I continued my many year losing streak by not winning a door prize nor a raffle basket. Maybe next year 😆
The only pictures I took was of this rug but did not get the name of the hooker. It is HUGE and she is changing it somewhat. The pattern designer is Lois Roy and I know in the past she could be found on Facebook. The background around the motifs is absolutely wonderful. I do wish I could hook a background like that.
I had planned to be good and not buy any wool . . . and I succeeded, though I was gifted a 1/4 yard of gorgeous hand dyed wool. I was bad, though because I bought this fun box from Chrisi Koehl of Rustic Eweniques. I have a couple of her other boxes but just couldn't resist this one.
I was NOT a happy camper when I went out and watered this morning. The da** deer finally ate my begonias . . .
. . . and my New Guinea impatiens.
Or should I just be happy they waited until October?
Do you think Harper has settled in with her new mom? This looks like one contented puppy! My heart is happy for her.
So what's going on with blogger? Views seem to be returning to normal. I went from over 6k views to "only" 4196 on my September 27 post. My October post was down to 158. Algorithms changed once again?
Thanks so much for stopping by! Will be back upon my little get away return.
Pug hugs 😊
Lauren

That rug is just AMAZING! Wish I could hook like that. Yes Harper is one happy lil lady. Have fun on your trip. Janice
I have always admired that pattern but it is too big for me to take on. You can do a background like that. You would need to stop using one color of wool and mix other colors in it. If you study the background you will see various darks, mixed with herringbone and even odd colors. You just need to try it.
Sure does look like Harper is zoned out in comfort.
