I dug out my Mom's hooked rug. I place this n the bedroom near my desk where it doesn't get any foot traffic. I put it out for a few months to enjoy and then roll it back up for a bit. She dyed all of her wool and cut it all into very very thin strips-I have her cutter. This was made in the early 1960's My brother got her vintage dining room table with the chairs that she had hooked all the seats for . I also inherited her amazing staircase runner. I gave that piece to one of our cousins as he has children to pass it down to. I may have shared this in the past. My Mom did amazing rug hooking pieces

A surprise tonight, the person across from us on the lake did a half hour fireworks show. He has not done that in very long time.

ReplyDeleteMy Mom hooked some amazing pieces-and back then they cut very narrow strips of wool now many use 1/4" instead.
DeleteI enjoy the fireworks from my living room windows haha he is a professional so it is always amazing to watch.
Have fun with the sleep over-hugs
Pretty sky Kathy. And wow, that rug is really beautiful. Your Mom did some lovely work if it's all as beautiful as that one in the photo. hugs-Erika
ReplyDeletethank you so much, all of her hooking was amazing. I have one other piece that she turned into a wall hanging-I need to repair that so I can enjoy it again
DeleteWhat an amazing rug your mom hooked. Love the sky pic. Very pretty indeed. How wonderful to see fireworks right from your house. Janice
ReplyDeleteThank you my Mom was a master of many things including being a master seamstress. It is really special to see fireworks right from our windows over the lake-we found out he is a professional so he puts on a quality show for at least 30 minutes-he has not done any for awhile now.
DeleteOh what a gorgeous sky Kathy - I enlarged it and so breathtaking. Your mom's rug is just beautiful and what a wonderful treasure. I can see why you would place it somewhere you can enjoy it. Hope you are doing well and praying that you don't get the ice they are saying may be coming our way. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteThank you this was an awesome sky-love the baby blue especially. hoping no more ice-ugh I think we are to be above freezing here-will check though-stay safe hugs
DeleteBeautiful lake pic and so nice that neighbor threw a firework.
ReplyDeleteWonderful you have some items from your Mom to put out once in a while!
Our kitchen table is from my Grandma, it still has marks I remember how they were "created". Have a nice day, over at your lake, hugs
This is awesome that you have your Grandma's table I think this is one of my favorite sunrise photos now hugs
DeleteWow! Your Mother's rug is gorgeous!
