Design #8 is called HOO-TIFUL
Sorry I am day late with Design #8. The shop is busy so I had little time to draw it on linen, I had to clean the upstairs for the hook-in and then I had a medical appointment in the afternoon. I can’t seem to find the time to do them up ahead, and the lighting isn’t good enough for my eyes at home. There isn’t enough hours in the day!
This second design of whimsical features in the body of an animal came about from a customer request. I rather enjoy this whimsical way of designing, taking something already beautiful in nature and adorning it even more with fanciful features. On this one I placed a colour band of patterns along the bottom to give the owl some weight, and to add a little more interest to the overall design. This pattern has the potential to be lively and bold with bright colours and lots of textures. It will be delightful to see it done by one of you talented rug hookers out there in Hookerville. Once again hubby named it in this perfect play on words, he is worth his weight in gold.
