Lee's Surrender Rugs
Recently I wove Lee's Surrender. I have wanted to weave this pattern ever since I saw it, but was never quite ready. Finally feeling up to the task I wound the warp and threaded the loom. It was quite a bear to get threaded because of the complexity of the pattern.
I wove 5 blankets in this pattern, black, green, blue, pink & black & gold. Below are some pictures of the black rug.
Some of the photos were taken at night and do do represent the colors well. I took the pink rug to the county fair and won a Sweepstakes (1st place). The pink rug is eligiable to go the the State fair next year. I will have photos of that rug up soon.
