Having good friends is a wonderful thing! My good friend, co-worker and blogger friend has always been very generous in her crafting! I have been the lucky recipient of some of her many talents. If you have time please visit her at:
Beautifully Exquisite Experiences. You might just find a new inspirational idea to make. I was trying to think of some way to thank her when I thought that she might like a little hooked mat for her home. I know she likes dogs so I decided on this antique rug adaption.

| 8x11 using a six cut |
When I finished the binding I made a little tag and rolled it up and tied a ribbon around. She really loved the rug and that made me very happy!
Happy Hooking Friends,
Elaine

ReplyDeleteI love your sweet little rug!!! My BFF is an airdale gal and I did a punch needle version for her a few years ago. The bed of flowers is too cute. Oh, I just everything about it. A 6 cut - WOW! I think that's fine hooking.

Hi Elaine! I have to say I felt like the luckiest girl in the world to receive this little rug. I was moved beyond words (which is rare for me) that you spent fo much time on a project for me. I have never owned such a lovely piece of art. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
