I love working with wool and just don't do it often enough. So...with that in mind...this month for my Early Work Mercantile offering, I decided to make a penny rug! I had so much fun creating this rug (or table mat) that I have to wonder why I don't make more of them.
The horses I used were adapted from a Becky Menges pattern but the design of the piece is entirely my own creation. With spring just around the corner, I decided to make my rug show a mama and her new little one since baby animals are one of my favorite pleasures of springtime. I hope you like it :)
Wishing you all a wonderful month of March,
Sandy

Great piece Sandy! And one of my favorite animal subjects. The colors are wonderful. Best wishes on your update. Hugs, Lori
Just darling; I too love the colors.
It's very lovely! You definitely have serious skills in rug-making! It isn't easy, and one must be very patient to make one. My sister made one for me and I always take care of it. If I saw even a small spec of dirt on it, I will clean it immediately because I'm scared that dirt may ruin my precious rug. Anyway, I enjoyed reading your posts and I'm looking forward to read and see more of your artistic projects.
