"Here I am hooking another quilt adaptation. While in a quilting store with whom else but my sister Shirley, this pattern jumped out at me and said it would make a great rug. I love the weaving over and under of the rectangles. The most interesting aspect was thinking of four ideas to represent four different fabrics: two geometric designs, a striped texture I found and a spot dye cut and hooked in sequence. I find it an engaging rug to look at."
