I have been hooking on Fireworks this week and I am almost finished the second long side. I am enjoying this hooking because I am striving for only the most general continuity in the borders. I have the overall colour palette but each paddle is unique, reflecting the day it was hooked and the internal and external weather.
Today’s, as I look at it now, seems to have more colour. Must be the sunshine and the warm weather we are having here in Ontario. I went for a long bike ride yesterday, most unusual for January, and am about to go again. Glorious.
WOW ! what a glorious looking piece !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Such a thing on the floor to look at : I would permanetly move all the furniture !
I LOVE IT !
Wow! You’re really zooming right along! Earlier today I was considering taking it easy this week and just catching up on paperwork, reading, etc. when I get home from work….but seeing this is motivating me to stick to my original plan of pulling Jumbo back up onto the frame this week. Starting tomorrow! 🙂
Thank you Els! It is a hard rug to photograph. The background is actually more subtle than it appears in these shots.
And Jennifer–you’re on! Let the hooking commence!! Let’s check in with each other at the end of the week.

Hi
Just a quick note to say I think your work is beautiful. I am a new rug hooker and new blogger I have saw and learnt so much from blogs such as yours. I am looking forward to seeing what you do in 2012.
Cheers
