Look What My husband Made for Me!

I want to take the time today to share with you what my husband made for me. He made me a simple, sturdy frame for my rug hooking.




My husband loves to do woodworking as much as I like rug hooking. I asked him if he could make me a frame, and he did! I find it really nice that even our crafts complement each other.

I love the fact that he used reclaimed wood. I am very fond of the natural wood color. It looks so beautiful next to the primitive linen.




I am really happy that he built the frame without front legs. This makes hooking so much easier as my arm can move freely under the frame, unhindered.

I am going to keep this post short, as I want to take advantage of the early morning hour to hook a little! A demain!

  1. What a great idea, Caroline, to make the front open for ease in hooking!

    I think a big hug is in order for your honey...he did well!!
