I hand dyed a lot of the wool for this rug and I changed the pot to a redware design. I hadn't bound or steamed it yet when I took this picture but as soon as I get a sleeve on it I will be hanging it up. It turned out to be one of my favorite rugs.

First Rug of 2020
I have had this Sunflower Footstool pattern, designed by Kim Nixon, for quite a while now and decided to get it done. First I had to spot dye all the fabric. I knew exactly how I wanted it to look. The pattern didn't have a flower that would be on top of the stool so I put one in. I'm so happy with how it turned out. Now I need to make the footstool.
I dyed more wool for the rug I'm working on now. I have been hooking so fast I needed to find something else to do to take up some time so dyeing was it! That rug is on my Cheticamp Frame right now and it might just take me awhile! I hope so!
For the Coverlet I dye the fabric after seeing one Barb Hagler brought to one of our meetings. I love how it turned out. I had wanted to make this pattern from The Old Tattered Flag for a long time but until I saw Barbs I never really knew what I wanted.
