Happy Valentines Day !!!!

 Tomorrow will be Valentines Day and I have this heart all hooked . Now to put a wool backing on it and hang it on the inside of my front door . Was fun to do , this was inspired by Lori from Not Forgotten Farm . Her hubby had given her a heart shaped candy box she saved . She posted a picture of it filled with her pretty Valdani threads & Saundra suggested someone should hook it .....well I jumped on it ! Thank you Lori & Saundra !!!! Was fun ...Hope you all have a nice day tomorrow and enjoy some chocolates

A few hooking projects ....


 I was house bound for the past few weeks during the bitter cold , gloomy , dreary days , so I kept myself busy hooking away ! 

I always like the antique patterns with just one house , so I drew this out and it fits perfectly on an end table . I was trying to create a blotchy background , but that didn't come out as I had planned , I reverse hooked little sections and decided that was enough , it wasn't easy for me . 

Then the other day Saundra posted some great antique rugs with hearts ....so I drew out this design to hook .The antique was a square , but I made mine a rectangle to fit a coffee table . 


Lori Brechlin from Not Forgotten Farm posted a heart shaped candy box filled with her pretty Valdani threads . My heart went Pitter Patt again !!! I am a sucker for Hearts ! Saundra suggested it be great hooked ! So I traced out 3 different sized circles . Then yesterday started on the circles ....this is fun  ! I am only using worms . I was afraid I would get bored , but I am really enjoying it !

Hope you are having fun hooking some Heart designs too !!!

My Latest Hooking Projects !

 Last Fall I bought this pattern from Woolen Memories . It is called Salt Box Pumpkin Garden . I had it all done except for binding it . With the bitter cold we had recently, it was a good project to finish .   We have lots of huge Oak trees in our yard , so was a perfect design  for me .  


A few weeks ago on Facebook Maria Barton offered a free pattern you could hook or punch . It is called  , " Home Is Where The Heart Is " This was a fun design to hook . I wanted to make it look old , but ended up tweaking it with some walnut spray . The colors were a little too bright . The heart I hooked next to it took just a few hours . I tend to hook designs with hearts , houses and baskets. I need to get into other designs !

Thank you for visiting. Now to figure out what to hook next !
