TRYING TO POST...AGAIN
The other evening, I tried and tried to post on my blog..but the text kept disappearing..then it would show up in the strangest places...oh well..going to try again! This is a rug that I started a little over a month ago. I designed it myself, with the year 1972..the year I was married. It is a tombstone shape, hooked with colors that are not in my usual color palette..but I have become more and more attracted to different shades of blue and ....gulp.....turquoise! I am using a number 9 cut. As you can see..I have two completely different colors for 1972. I couldn't decide it I liked the black or the grey. I'm kind of leaning toward the grey..I think it compliments the turquoise urn..but I'll probably wait until I have completed the background.

Great design Bobbie! I love the colors. I'm drawn to blues and turquoise also. They look so nice in your rug. Can't wait to see it when you're done.
Love your background ~ your hooking is great, too!
Bobbie your rug is lovely...looking very antique...
Looking lovely! I like the gray as well. The colors work well together...the blues and the turquoise.

Your rug is lovely and even with the turquoise, the colors are still very prim and old looking! I look forward to seeing the finished rug.
Happy spring to you!

Such a wonderful rug....great colors. Such a good idea to hook the numbers in different colors to see what you like best!

Hi Bobbie.
Remember me your former neighbor at Malalbar.
I was wondering if you would be interested in doing a show this June 18th. E-mail me at Tkeepingroom@aol.com
Thanks, Linda*
Oh Bobbie, what a gorgeous rug! I absolutely LOVE shades of blue and grey, and working in a cherished date is simply perfect. I shall look forward to the finish!
Happy hugs...J
