Hooked rugs











Well the weather here in Ohio has been really great, I love the cool mornings and the warm sunny days. I have been cleaning out stuff. I think most have stuff that someday you'll use and just hate to get rid of, well I am getting rid of those things, probably only to refill spaces through the summer by going to garage sales and thrift shops. Terrible cycle for me.




I did manage to get some rugs hooked last week, which is very satisfying to sit and hook. Hopefully this week before it's over I need to do Mother's Day gifts and put a quilt together for someone.




Hope everyone has a great week. Thanks for stopping by Rhonda

New Hooked Rug and Offerings on TDIPT Mercantile

Well, I have been really busy getting ready for a show, it is this Saturday, so after that is over, I can get back to hooking and punching. I also have been invited to TDIPT Mercantile and I have some offerings there for you to view. If you can stop by and take a peek. The weather here today is beautiful, but is going to drop and be in the 40's Saturday, YUK. Here is one of my rugs that I have finished.

This is a Need'l Love design. I used a brown/black textured wool for the background, and some nice Spring colors in the flowers.

Gotta get back to my craft show things, be back later, Thanks for stopping by. Rhonda

Hooked rug for Spring

I hooked this rug with the wonderful thoughts of SPRING. The colors I used in it are blues for the bright blue sky, yellow for the warm golden sun, lilac and pink for the fresh spring flowers and the green of course for the fresh smell of the new green grass, ahh doesn't it make you want Spring BAD!! Does me. Well this rug I used a pattern by With Thy Needle and Thread , I love her patterns. I listed this on e-bay. My e-bay ID is myglorystars. Hope you check out my items.
Well I have to say my husband has totally spoiled me!!! He is awesome!!!! I got the townsend cutter for Christmas and he also surprised me for Valentines day with the snap dragon frame. He has been listening to me talk with the girls. I liked that my old frame had the turn table on the bottom, and if snapdragon had that they would be the best !! Well he attached a turn table for me, I didn't even know he did it, it matches the wood in the frame perfect I though he purchased it that way, he told me NO he did that, so I have a one of a kind. I am just so excited about my gifts!!!
I have been working on orders, and now I really need to get serious on making things for my up-coming show in April. Thanks for stopping by!!!!

New rugs I have hooked

This rug turned out great, the overdyed brown wool I used was just perfect for the brown crocks. This is a pattern by Primitive pieces by Linda, she has some really great pattern, I own a few, I just need to make them. This rug a hooked a few weeks ago and already has a new home.
Ok this rug is just so SWEET, I love how it turned out. I used medium prim tones in this rug. This is another great pattern by With Thy Needle and Thread.
I don't have as many items to post right now, I have been busy this week working on orders, so maybe next week I will have some new items to share. Thanks to stopping by.

No time for cabin fever here.

I love this rug, the colors I used in this rug are overdyed wools, I love the variety of color from dyed wools. This is a pattern by Robin of Bird In The Hand Primitives. Her things are so sweet check out her blog for her patterns.

This bunny pinkeep pillow is a pattern by With Thy Needle and Thread. Love her things also, I have many of her designs.
This rug is a pattern by Primitive Pieces by Linda, she has some really awesome patterns. This pattern actually is an applique pattern, but I decided to hook it.

This is another sweet punch pattern by With Thy Needle and Thread.


I hooked this bunny rug using another With Thy Needle and Thread Pattern. Same with the bird below. Brenda had alot of new offerings her last time around and I guess I needed them all. Love them.

I also have been doing some quilting, I have gotten 3 lap size quilts finished. Hope to post those next time. Hope my work has inspired you and given you warm thoughts of Spring, SOOOOON it will be here.

Gift from Friend and more Hooked rugs.

Well I am just as happy as can be. I got the mail today and Angie from Lovetheprimlook sent me a package. Inside was the most wonderful doll and puppy!! I absolutely love them both. Thank you Thank you Angie, your work is beautiful!!!! Here she is, isn't she great!!
I have been doing alot of hooking I do have several rugs that I have completed, most are gone to a new home. Here a few to show ya. The first 2 I have on e-bay right now(myglorystars). The first rug is one I did a while back just never finished my edging, Now it is completed. It is a wonderful pattern by Maggie Bonanomi. This rug if done in rich warm tones of browns and creams. This next rug I have done is full of Spring, I wanted to do something with some colors I don't normally do, plus just a change up for the warmer days, I am SICK of WINTER.





The next 2 rugs have found their way to new homes. I love both of these rugs. The first one is an adaption of a Maggie Bonanomi pattern. The colors in this rug were just gorgeous. And the bottom rug is an adaption of a pattern from Thy Needle and Thread. I love her patterns.




I have also been trying to get a quilt done. I have the top pieced now all I have to do is get it layered and quilt it, by machine of course. No time to hand quilt. Hopefully I will post a pic when I get it done. It is a pattern by Primitive Pieces by Linda. I also love her things. Well that is all I have to share right now, I will try and get back soon with more items I have finished.



PS: Thanks again Angie I love my doll.
