5 Hearts

Just need to do the binding on this scrappy runner. I'm looking forward to finishing it and having it in place. Most all my rugs "live" at the studio/shop...or other people's homes...so I'm working on some for our home! This will live in the doorway between the kitchen and livingroom.




I'm working on this "Speckled Hen" rug for in front of the refrigerator. I've had the pattern for many years. I dug it out to hook in a UFO Challenge! It's a Kris Miller/Spruce Ridge Studios adaptation of a M. Shaw design. It's 20" x 20" and I need it to be closer to 24" square...so I'll be playing with the border!!!

    Hey Gals,
    Thanks for taking time to visit here and leaving some kind words!

    Betty...I've been thinking about you alot lately! This was the design I was going to do for the challenge...but never got around to it!

    Pam...Hope you had a GREAT Annivesary! If your Celebrations book hasn't arrived yet, it should be there Monday! Thanks so much for the order!!! I sent this pic to Kelley, because I couldn't figure out how to add it to the UFO blog...I'm SO much better with a hook than a computer...LOL!

    Wooly Hugs...L

    Thanks for commenting on the article of my home.
    I did the hen you are doing of M.Shaw some yrs. ago, what a fun rug, it is in my dining room in front of the blanket chest but you can't see it in the pic.and since i do such dark rugs they are hard to see anyway. I love her patterns and just finished the last one i had of hers.

    Hi Laurie, I tried to find this pattern and I think it is not sold any where any more. I can't wait to see yours finished.

    Paula,
    Sorry you couldn't find the pattern. Did you get my reply to your email??? Like I said in the email, I've had this pattern for probably 6 years. Did you check with Kris at Spruce Ridge? It may be that she is no longer able to adapt and sell M. Shaw patterns. I think Margaret has her own line now.

    How's your BIG rug comin" along???

    Laurie
