Flower Power Rug

21” x 37” 100% Wool on Linen, Wool yarn & cotton twill binding, cotton thread stitching
This hooked chair pad would also look great as a table mat!

I’m honored to have been selected for inclusion Early American Life Magazine’s Directory of Traditional American Crafts ~ 2010
I hand hook in the traditional manner using 100% wool fabric strips on a linen foundation. This rug was hooked with 100% new wool, most of which was hand-dyed with my original recipes. Bits of antique paisley add special interest to this rug. I professionally finish my rugs by binding them with my durable, hand-dyed rug yarn and sewing on cotton twill tape.
For those of you that aren’t familiar with my work...I’ve been dyeing wool and hooking for over 30 years. My rugs are part of private collections across the country. I rarely list my rugs, but as time permits...I hope to offer more here for your consideration. This heirloom quality rug will come to you signed and dated.
