Greetings from Maryland!
I'm sure most of you have heard about April DeConick's 10 Minute Rug Hooker Challenge by now. If not, you need to check out her blog, Red Jack Rugs, and find out more about what she's doing in the rug hooking community. Great things are happening there!
I decided to sign up for her challenge...hence the blog to track my progress! It's really quite simple and painless. (The challenge that is. Can't say the same for blogging just yet!) You agree to hook, or do something related to hooking like designing, dyeing, etc, for 10 minutes a day, 6 days a week. I can do that! So, I signed up last week and am amazed at the progress that I've made. I wanted to share the rug that I'm working on with you. It's a design by Kelley Belfast and I love it! I think I might actually get it finished by Halloween...this year even! Life is good!
Hope everyone has a delightful day and, as always, HAPPY HOOKING!
Mary, it is beautiful!! Look how much you've gotten done. You will have it done for sure by this Halloween.
ReplyDeleteMight just have to join in on the 10 minute challenge to try and stay on track. Have a great day!
Mary, what a cute rug. And you are almost done!
ReplyDeleteMary your rug is turning out so great! Love all the colors you are using. Lori R
ReplyDeleteIt took me a second or two to figure out that this is an ABC rug***Ha! Sorry, just got home from work and must be a little more tired that I thought.

ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful rug! (I didn't realize it was an ABC rug until I read Debra's comment. Duh!)
Your new blog is off to a great start.
Pug hugs :)

you are sure doing my little pattern proud with your gorgeous hooking!!! love everything about it...especially the dark background...oooh now I need to hook one too!
ReplyDeleteHi Mary! Love how you are hooking up Kelley's pattern! You have a bunch of patience to be hooking around all those letters! :-) I'm hooking at least 10 minutes a day... though I haven't officially signed into their group... Just seeing the challenge logo on my blog in the morning reminds me to pick up that hook!!! LOL!
ReplyDeleteI adore samplers - whether they're hooked, cross stitched, or a stitchery - yours is looking great!
