( rug is 9.75 by 20 inches)
What do you think of the name of my latest hooked rug design? When I finished color planning and hooking this rug I was pleased with the overall results and a little stunned by how much the flower pot made its presence! So in my mind's eye there could be no better name for it than "The Flower Pot"!
One of my favorite things about Spring is digging out the old terra cotta flower pots that I've collected over the years and placing them in little groupings around the garden.
Some of the old ones have a mossy patina and some are decorated with stripes and the fading artwork of flower lovers of the past.
You could say my design is kind of a remembrance to the old terra cotta pots.
You can never have too many of them!
I hooked my rug using a wide 8.5 cut strip and used a #7cut for the stems to make them a little more fragile in appearance. But over all I wanted the rug to be very primitive so the wider strips worked well for that.
The design measures 9.75 by 20 inches.
It is a perfect size for those tall and narrow spaces and to hang on old cupboard doors!

Hi Cathy, your creative mind has been hard at work. A perfect design to welcome Spring... I wish I were closer I'd so enjoy being part of your hooking group, I can tell you are a FUN, wonderful, patient teacher. My hook is doing nothing but gathering dust!! Let me just say visiting the Dorr Mill Outlet is like being a kid in a candy store!!!Enjoy the day, Julie.

Love the design. Maria
ReplyDeleteI love it Cathy. I love the way you hook your backgrounds with a mix. I've never been able to master that. Any tips??
ReplyDeleteAs with everything you design and hook, this is wonderful. It's the little things like the fun scallop and dots you have on the left side and the top. Just the right touch that makes it so Cathy. I am teaching a primitive class in June and your blog will be a big destination I will give to the students. Happy Spring!!!
