Foggy in the Fall

This little rug started off as 'Bird in the Snow' but all that white was making me cranky and had to add some colour so it became 'Foggy in the Fall'.... thanks to my Mothers' quick thinking...thanks Mom.

Fifty Shades of Grey-The Rug SOLD

This was very strange for me, this rug. I wanted to hook a winter tree and I don't use much white in my work but I used my braveness and went for it! I added a little colour to the tree, a bit of yellow and red sari because it was driving me nuts as it was so bleak. As I was hooking the sky, I thought wow!, this is a lot of grey..like fifty shades at least. Ha!

Just finished! SOLD

I just finished hooking big bird. I like it!..and I don't know how the lady in the rug feels about it. She is worried this big bird may have eaten her kitty, Fluffy.

"Kitty taking care of kitty business"

Just finished this little kitty. Originally he didn't have a tail and my daughter said, "It looks like a fish head- down into a box". ..so I added a tail. Glad I have a very honest ..and sweet..critic living with me.
