Be Still My Heart! ~Two Posts On One Day!!!

(adaptation of antique Clover Buds in Basket Rug or Lollipop Rug as some have called it)

Two posts on one day!!  I know... first I don't post at all... then two on one day!!  But I just couldn't let Valentines Day go by without sharing this gorgeous rug my friend Lisa just finished hooking! Remember she's only been hooking rugs for less than a year!  I am steam pressing it for her today and she has to bind it.... but oh I can't stop looking at it!!  
Lisa my lovely lady... you are my inspiration! 
And that's not all... she's taken to drawing up some of her own patterns to hook.... wait til' you see!
Be still my heart!!
Again.... May your heart go pitter patter on this day of Hearts!

XXXOOO!

    It is just beautiful. You must be an incredible teacher for that second rug to look so perfect. She is also very, very talented. :) I can see why you keep looking at it. I would too.
