A couple of finished rugs

I finished hooking my new Spring rug last night.  All you have seen of it is a little peek.  And tonight I buckled down and bound them both.  An amazing feat for me.
(Aren't you proud of me?)

Here is the newest rug - Spring Birdhouses

 
And continuing with the spring theme here is the other little Spring Chicks rug.
You have seen it already but not bound and ready for a new destination
(yet to be determined)


Now all that is left to welcome Spring officially is a shoe shopping binge. 
I'm getting the urge.

But first, this weekend, I need to try a sample of my Pay it Forward craft idea.
Fingers crossed.

  5. I love your rugs. Especially the bird house rug. I just love bird houses in the garden! I'm in binding mode too, and my current hooking project keeps tearing me away! You did a great job on both projects!!

  9. Kim, you should keep a fire extinguisher near by when you hook as your wool might catch on fire. You hook so fast. Your two rugs are so darling and I can see that it's unanimous that everyone loves them. Great job.

    Now that the weekend is here, run to the shoe store and don't let anything get in your way now. Have fun, why settle for one pair, you certainly deserves at least two pairs of new shoes, one for each rugs at least. Hugs, JB

  12. So good to see you are following "The Rule..." (You are, aren't you??!) Anyway~GREAT rugs!!! Me, I'm partial to the little chicks (ah, dah - wouldn't have guessed that one, would've you?) One thing in your post concerns me, though, you don't really reserve shoe-binge-ing to the spring, do you??? Ah, no, my friend... then you are missing out on 3 other seasons....(Bet I've got you beat on the shoe thing!!) ;o) Robin
