Two locker hook rugs

Hallo,
  Just stopping in briefly to show you the latest 2 locker hook rugs I have finished.
  These I am making for an Aunt whose Mom did a lot of sewing . When she passed away there was a lot of material stashed away. She sent me some and I am making them up for her to give to her sisters for Christmas.
   The material is all double knit. It is pretty easy to work with and washes well. and double knit is durable too.
    All for today - stay warm!!!

Locker hook rug - 70's orange and greens

Hallo,
  A quick stop in this morning to show you the latest locker hook rug that I finished. I made up a few lately for an Aunt of mine - they are made with vintage double knit fabrics from her Mom's stash.
 Measurements are about 2 feet wide by 3 feet long - which is about the size I make most of them - big enough to use at the sink or in a hallway without getting too big to work on easily.
  This one is done in greens and various fabrics with orange in them - 70's orange I call them.
  It takes me about 30 hours to do one of these rugs - cutting the fabric into strips, preparing the base canvas and then actually doing the locker hooking.
   All for today - stop back tomorrow, I am catching up showing you recent projects in the next few days....
  Take Care
