My Recent Hooking Projects

 I have been busy working in the yard on nice days .....cleaning the house ....and then Hooking !!! 

I got the idea for this project from Saundra ....it is an antique design drawn on linen for my coffee table . I tried to make it look old and faded. it is steamed and ready to bind. It is 25 & 1/2" wide by 17 " high . It should hide anything that should get spilled on it ! LOL

 Then this project was just so fun and a favorite . It is by Woolen Memories ....Sandy just has so many sweet patterns !!! This is called " Little Garden  ". My goal for this was to make the watering can look like it has some rusty spots. Then I tried to throw in bits of color thru the background to add interest . 

My friends are challenging me to hook a Big pattern  ! Since most of the rooms in my house have wall to wall carpet , my living room - dinning room is one big room that has wood floors , but big braided rugs. I am on the hunt that will be fun to hook . It could go in my kitchen in front of the sink or at the bottom of my stairs. It could take me a while though! 

Thank you for visiting !!!!
