I love how this little guy turned out. This is a pattern by Lori Brechlin. I did the beading technique with 2 shades of oranges around the outside of this rug, it is hard to see in the picture.
This rug, OMG I have been wanting to hook it every since I seen it on Maria Barton's blog. I love it!!! I sewed old buttons on for all their eyes. Two of the pumpkins have the beading technique for their mouths. I hook this rug using 8.5 and 9, which I lov using, first time I have ever used my #9. I usually hook on monks and it is to hard to use the #9 on, but this pattern was drawn on linen, and made it real nice to use #9. I was able to attend Sauder Village this year, and it was really nice, but the bad part was I bought way too much, so now I need to keep on hooking. I hope to maybe get these listed on ebay tonight.Have a great day Rhonda

Rhonda,
ReplyDeleteI ablsolutely adore both rugs! That beading really makes a nice touch. I haven't had time to do my Tumbling Down yet. I'll use yours and Maria's for inspiration! Thanks for sharing. I don't know how you can part with these!
Love your pumpkin rugs, they are beautiful! We are getting ready to move in a couple weeks & all my fun is packed away!

ReplyDeleteYour rugs are amazing!!! The beading technique really adds to the rug. Can I come get lessons from you in how to complete a rug in less than 6 months??? I have been so bad!
Pug hugs :)

Very nice, Rhonda! I spent way too much money too at Sauder! I have got to get hooking just to use up some of the wool I had before I went to Sauder! It was a great show, wasn't it? I wished I had of purchased that pumpkin rug from Maria also..it is so cute! See you in a few weeks!
