I am home from rug class. This is the second time I have had a class with Katie Hartner of A Nimble Thimble/Woolley Fox. She is just a delight and shares so much knowledge. I'm sure everyone left class with much useful information.
Today I will quickly share the rug I was working on. It is titled Indian Peace Flag and if it sounds a bit familiar, check out Saundra's blog. It is an antique adaptation sold by The Woolley Fox.
Day 1 progress ~
At the end of day 2. I accomplished much more the first day, but I was still happy with what I got hooked!
And finally day 3 which was only a half day.
The color is most accurate in the first picture, but if I want to get this post done before I head to dinner, this one will have to do . . . sigh.
At 31" x 38" this is a big pattern for me. There will also be stars & stripes on the rug (but not a full flag). I will be working on this for a long time! Sadly I know it won't be done for our nation's 250th birthday. I also plan to eliminate the bottom right star and replace it with 1776 - 2026.
Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs 😊

Looking mighty fine Lauren. A great tribute piece for our 250 birthday. Janice
ReplyDeleteWelcome home!! See how much you can accomplish on a rug when you actually sit and hook, lol. Looking great and I particularly love the 1776 and 2026 addition.
ReplyDeleteKatie Hartner is such a nice gal ....her colors and how she uses little bits & pieces amazed me . Your Eagle looks wonderful and you got a lot of hooking done ! Will be nice to include the dates too !
ReplyDeleteGood progress! It will look great.

I love this...your colors are incredible. If I could hook that much in 3 days, I'd start hooking this as soon as I could get pattern and wool. I need to stop surrounding myself by such speedy hookers and stitchers.
ReplyDeleteLove this pattern!
ReplyDeleteI’m loving these patriotic patterns!
