Meet "The Twins"

I would like to introduce you to what I call "The Twins". These locker hooked rugs were made for a dear friend of my mothers. She asked me if I would make here a pair of rugs and they had to be the same. When you are doing locker hooking it can be a challenge. Fabric does stretch. So placement of color can be a challenge. She asked me to make it random. Similar to one of my other rugs. So this is what she got.


This one is a close up of the colors.
My mom's friend picked the colors and I did the rest. I really love how they turned out. She said random and this is for sure random. You won't see any dirt on these. I have to tell you a funny thing though. After I make a rug it isn't complete without putting it on the floor and stepping on it. So after every rug I make I have to put my tootsies on them all. And of course my kids laugh at me when I do this cause it is a big deal to me and I make it that way. I sure have enjoyed making these rugs. Little splashes of color.
