Pinning lamb's tongue border on Cora's Cat rug. Pattern by Black Sheep Designs. I could only get a section of the rug into the picture because it is on my dining room table so I could pin on the tongues. Next up is to sew the tongues on. The rug is destined to replace an old oriental beside my bed.

Progress on my Magdalena Briner Eby Eagle rug. Pattern by American Country Rugs. I got a lot of help with color planning and placement from Lucille Festa. Most of the rug is done with her wool. I will finish it with a few rows of dark brown wool for an outside border.

This is one of my early rugs. I made it for my sister about 18 years ago. At the time she lived on a small farm in Arcadia FL. She raised chickens and goats. She still lives in Florida but doesn’t live on the farm anymore. I believe the pattern is based on an old chicken feed bag.
