Peeps and A Rooster Rug

After listening to the weather this morning,

I decided I better get my groceries today.

Tonight it is supposed to start snowing

and we are supposed to get 4 to 8 inches.


I finished hooking this rug this afternoon.

It is a Country Stitches pattern.

I listed it on Ebay tonight.

While I was shopping I stopped at the farm store,TSC.

I kept hearing birds and thought there must be

some birds in the store.

Looked up at the ceiling. LOL!

Then I walked to the next isle and there they were, chicks!!

I have been wanting to get some peeps.

So, called my hubby and he said to get them.

We had everything we needed except a new heat lamp.

They are so cute!


Have a good evening!

  1. Oh my... snow again? I so dislike this transition from winter into spring. We had very warm weather here for almost a week, and this morning a cold front found its way into our state. Tonight freezing temps. again! But at least not snow. Surely we will all get spring weather soon. It will be welcomed after a long hard cold winter. Take care and be safe. Love the rug. I want to learn how to hook, but have no clue where to begin.

    Oh, you brought back memories of my youth ~ a long, long time ago...lol. I lived on a small farm and the baby chicks used to be delivered via USPS. There were either 50 or a 100 in the box and the noise they would make! Hubby is so right ~ they don't stay cute for long.
    LOVE the rug!
    Hugs :)

  10. Hi julie,

    I have purchased several of your rugs and I love them all. I bought a ton of wool hoping to get into rug hooking. However, I am not into it but would rather cross stitch. If I mailed all the wool to you, would you be interested in discussing a rug design using the wool and keeping the remaining wool for your wonderful rugs?

    You can contact me at dgill3@ec.rr.com. Thanks so much.
