Beat the Heat 2016

Colored Block Hooked Rug
From the book, Comfort Zone
by Maggie Bonanomi

Beat the Heat 2016 is just around the corner--July 16.  Instead of doing what I usually do waiting until the last minute I decided to get proactive and choose my project instead of waiting until the night before the event to start planning it.


I have all these left over worms from previous projects and wanted to use them up.  Words from Grandmother waste not, want not.  I also have re purposed wool from Goodwill.


Maggie Bonanomi is one of my favorite designers--love her primitive style and she never fails to give me inspiration.


Maggie did not disappoint and I found this rug in her book, Comfort Zone.  Ahhh, primitive and a way to use up my left over worms and re purposed wool.


I located my sharpie, tried as best I could to draw the 6" squares on the straight of the linen fabric.


The rug reminded me of one of the quilts I saw at the Paducah Quilt Show in April.


And this rug from the March Madness Hooking event in Franklin.

Now to locate my hook and pull some loops.
