I started this rug in a class at McGown teacher's workshop. This rug was a great opportunity to use lots of texture, that was the actual exercise of doing this piece. Therefore, I used very little regular flannel weight wool. I overdyed lots of textures and had fun working with these interesting wools.
I couldn't help myself when I gave him a cocky expression. I have never met a Rooster without attitude, and this one has lots of it!

This rug is beautiful! I think you should print it up to make cards! He could spread sunshine to many people... Just a thought! This rug certainly reflects the time, consideration and attention you put into it.
ReplyDeleteWhat detail, Tony! Love it and hope the weather is as good in Montreal as it is here in the east.
