Ponderings


As I have been thinking about dimensional rug hooking. Several idea's have come to my head for future projects. One of the things I am concidering is to teach how to do a Rug Hooked Teddy Bear. Or even a different animal.
Please let me know if you are interested in this.

Progress on Dolls



Remember I am happy to do special orders and I do try to find something for your color schemes.


After these dolls and patterns are finished. I hope to begin another spring rug hooking pattern. What should I make dimensional this spring? Plus create a tutorial on dimensional rug hooking. Please stay posted for when this tutorial will become available.

I did one last year on my Easter Eggs.

Also I hope to put all my doll making tips into one place and post this information. You learn a lot through the years as you make dolls. I want to pass on this information that I have gleaned a long the line.

I have given myself one more month to complete my rug. These rugs are huge.
4 1/2 feet by 3 feet.
Whewww Big Huge Rugs.


I will be doing a little more reverse hooking here. The letters in the sky I will make darker. So they show up better. It is good to look at a picture of the rug so I can see things that need changing. Like the cross I had to make much darker and the heart that hangs from the black birds mouth. I am having a blast designing and hooking this rug. Even dyeing the fabric. Hooking with roving, yarn and wool strips. How fun this is!!!!
