Traveling in a car and hooking.....

I have been a hooking fool lately. Why? Mainly because I've spent a lot of time in the car (as a passenger that is!) Anymore, it seems the only time I have to hook is when I'm trapped in a car for long period of times.
Funny, most people don't like to travel in a car for any distance. Me...I see it as a grand opportunity to hook uninterrupted!
Here are a couple more mats I'm working on for Ghoultide Gathering.....

(disclaimer....pictures make the mats appear brighter than they are)

I also started two larger rugs (well larger than these little mats) that I'll offer as patterns. Hopefully, I'll complete this weekend and share details and pictures.

So after all the bright Halloween colors for a week, I craved a nice primitive palette and decided to hook my Little Dog pattern in a textured dull primitive palette. So far, I am really diggin it. When I get a little further along on the rug, I'll share a few "in progress" pictures. Have a great rest of the week. Maria

good for you that you can hook in the car. I would make myself sick while doing that. I am not much of a rider. I love the subject.
