Locker Hook Rugs

Four years ago I made a locker hook rug for my husband for Christmas. Locker Hook rugs are made using fabric strips, cotton string, and rug canvas using a special tool that looks like a crochet hook with a large needle eye. It's an original design with my husband's sailboat as the center and the shoreline of Lake Murray as seen from our lake house. My second rug was the state of SC. Then I taught my sister to make them. She's made at least 20 rugs, teaches classes, and sells them. She even gave me one as a present.

Buzz Saw

Buzz Saw was made using forty 2 1/2" strips of civil war reproduction fabrics and twenty 2 1/2" civil war reproduction background fabrics along with a navy border fabric. The quilt was very easy to make. I really had fun quilting feathers in the light areas. Finished quilt is 60 x 72.
