Rug Hooking

Rug Hooking
Originally uploaded by bbmarie {studiobeerhorst}.

This is slow-going! I almost always get stalled in the beginning of a rug. There are usually too many options and I am really picky. So-- I am ambivilent about these two flowers. It's not that I hate them..... it's just that I don't love them --- But I am not sure why or what the heck? So I have been avoiding working on it. I am waiting on that mental "click" that happens when I know what and why I should do something to this rug. But in the meantime I am making hooked flower pins. I know I should work on the background or finish the vase. I will. Maybe if I try a third flower it will all "click". Even when I am not working on it my subconscious is hashing it out. At least I am hoping it is :)

This is an unsolicited opinion but here I go ~ when I look at your blog in general, your colors are very strong ~ these two flowers are not as strong and may not look as good to you because of that!! I think it's a great pattern ~ good luck!!!
