I had an idea to stimulate action in our
rug hooking guild.
I ordered heavy duty labels which read:
2020 Isolation Rug
These will be sewn onto the backs of rugs
we work on during this time.
If I need to order more I will.
The seller I used was
ExperimentalDesign on Etsy
ExperimentalDesign on Etsy
This was a special order and I asked that they be
3”x1” heavy duty.
If you’re reading this and are a solitary hooker
or if you belong to a group,
I invite you to do the same!!!
Here is where I am on my 1840s rug
I’m wondering if my brown background areas
are too much?
Perhaps I’ll intersperse more falling flowers.
Having the rainbows in the corners helps too.
So...
My hubby and I are still on speaking terms🤣
Jigsaw puzzles, crossword puzzles, card games and baking help.
When those don’t work we separate into
different rooms.
We are watching the African series with Haley Mills
from 1981, The Flame Trees of Thika.
Lovely and reassuring♥️
May your week be blessed with

what a wonderful idea! You rug is great you are keeping busy.
WE are still speaking too but we have separate hobbies and usually come together in the evening for dinner and some tv.

I'm loving your isolation rug and the labels are a fun idea. Very similar to what I planned to add to my homemade labels.
I don't think the background is too much. I like it as is.
Happy to hear you and the hubs are still on speaking terms...lol!
Take good care and be healthy!
Your isolation rug is looking great. The hubby and I have different interests but we also share an office. This is when a good pair of headset comes in handy. It also helps that the sun has been shining and I've been able to work in the yard.
Stay safe and healthy.

The isolation rug is coming along great and I do like the browns. Janice
That sounds like a fun idea for any project we make during this time. I have been thinking I might design something as a historical piece, need to get my sketch books out. My husband is still working but on 4 day shifts, so he does his thing and I do mine, that keeps the peace, lol.

The historical piece sounds brilliant! By the way, our rv is in isolation like we are but we can’t wait to get it out
Thanks Janice! I’ll finish the rug and let y’all take a second look! Keep well
I haven’t done yard work yet but have sat on our deck with a glass of wine. We’ve had a pair of goldfinches in our feeder. Wonder what birds you’re seeing since we’re close
Thanks! Isn’t it strange to think that this will all be in history books someday... promising too
Evenings with hubby are good here too. Besides tv we’ve started a challenging new puzzle!
