Star Log Cabin Hooked Rug


It is so rainy and gloomy in Ohio today. I'm so glad I didn't have to go out. Last night I was woke up to thunder and lightning. This week it's supposed to turn cold, I'm kinda glad. I'd rather have some white snow than mud.
I'm going to list this rug on Ebay tonight. This rug is one of my favorites that I have hooked. The colors are the ones I like to use, I hand dyed all the wool except for the mixed black plaid. The design is by Primitive Gatherings.
Have you heard of Henn Workshop pottery? They went out of business. They sold their inventory to some stores around here. So, I have been buying alot of pottery this January. I have collected it for years and have spent a fortune on it. This week I bought the dinner plates and casserole dishes etc. CHEAP, it kinda makes me sick I spent all that money on it through the years. I have been going through all the pieces and seeing what has cracks and replacing those pieces. I let my mom and sister know and now they are hooked too. Last Friday me and 2 other friends, Wanda and Chris drove to a store that had the baskets. All of us spent too much but, we had fun!!
Hope everyone has a great week!!
