I haven't posted anything much on my rug hooking project lately...... and that's because I'm not going at my usual manic hooking pace. But, actually.... I'm really enjoying this project because I have no particular home for it yet. It's fairly large, and I'm currently working in little roses around the edge. I don't have a background color yet, but am thinking blues or perhaps golds. What color would you choose? A new perspective might just push me to get going on this one. I would like it done before we're very far into spring.
It's not really an oval, but a large rectangle... just thought I'd try out this little enhancement on iPhoto.
My fox pastel is finished. I made some body shape changes and added more color in the background since I last posted. Beneath is the photo I was working from. This little girl was a very good mama to her wee ones last spring. We watched her raise them for about a month. We haven't seen any foxes around lately, but our neighbor saw one the other day that didn't appear to be in very good health. Poor creatures are pushing into our neighborhoods as we push into theirs.

I'm closing with a simple photo of my kitchen windowsill. It's one of my favorite places to put tiny bottles and old jars for flower vases. The iris and red carnations are from the grocery, the forsythia branches are some I brought in a couple of weeks ago to force bloom, and the daffodils, snowdrops, and crocus were picked by me this morning from the yard.
Sending my hopes to you for a most lovely weekend!
