Finally making headway on my Hooked Rug!

Posted on 11:04 AM by hill wilf
Hooking and ripping again but It was necessary.
I like my Pray for Moo Cow rug much better now! .

The rug on the left is the before picture!I didn't like the way the word Pray looked I needed it to stand out better in my hooked rug.
I also took out the orange ground after I hooked it.I decided that I wanted everything to float like my favorite hooker
Magdalena Briner.I also redid the Black angel wings so you could see them better.
So that's why I am so slow.

                         Have you ever looked at a rug your hooking and knew you needed to change it. Here is how my rug is evolving slowly. You can see how much I change my mind when I am trying to make a rug reflect what I like.I love patterns which are worth every penny but it is fun to be like a rug hooker of the past . Hooking about her self and  her rugs reflecting a little of her taste.I so love primitive rug hooking
 I am all that and a bag of chip!
 So In between watching U tube videos of knitting socks to planting my berry bush and redecorating my sewing room I have been a hot mess!I have been gardening a bunch  in my garden this last week.I also have been cutting back ice plant again and starting a small garden in my side yard. Note to gardeners never plant red apple ice plant it grows over everything! Oh also on my Do not plant list!
Morning glories and vinca.I bet I am going to add to the list berries. I did think of that so I  planted them in a contained spot in the middle of  railroad ties.
                                                                                                      
                        After picture

Just the right top corner to hook and the bottom and I am done!


 
A couple of nights ago felt like something was hurting my skin on the top layer of my stomach and around my side. I couldn’t see anything but it felt painful to touch  It also felt like the skin underneath the part where it was achy was really numb and spreading!

Such a really odd feeling. I can’t believe my stomach could ever feel numb! Well today I looked at my stomach and there is something that looks like a rash. So something must have bitten me more then once! I wonder if a spider bite can kind of poison you. I kept lifting my shirt showing hubby my stomach. He kept  repeating "I don’t see anything. " Finally I could see those red cluster of bites.I also have them around my back! With a self satisfied “See there is something there it’s not in my head!”


With that hubby looked at it and said “You probably scratched yourself”
Men!

                                        I caught some horse riders riding by on a peaceful Sunday
 
 
 
                                                                  Nice day for a ride
