Hook Rug Sheep Challenge

Easter Greetings!

On the FB Rug Hookers they had a challenge of a sheep, daffodils and the 2 houses.  This is what I Designed around the 3 items and finished before the deadline May 1.


"Best of All"  pattern by Nancy Halvorsen can be appliqued or embroidered. I like the embroidery and it will be matted and framed.

Baby Blanket and Tatted Socks for Ms Ella

 
Quilt is finished and ready to be mailed to Ms Ella in Boston, Mass.
The crazy quilt patches are machine quilted with the feather stitch and the rest is free motion stippling and Motifs on the blue border. This was shown in an earlier post. The mice in the outer border were stippled around them to make them stand out.

 Purchased knitted socks with tatted edging. It is an easy ring and chain but must stretch after each ring. This pkg of socks are from birth to 2 yrs so she will get some wear out them.
Knitted baby hat, the first one was way too small.

French knot tree and sheep Hexie block.  Along with a  beaded turtle and found these pheasant earnings, just what this block needed!  Learning to combine seam treatments. The top one has 3 with beads.
