So, I give you...my big a** star rug aka Stars and Fans by Sally Kallin of Pine Island Primitives.
I bought this rug in 2008. I last worked on it in September of 2010. This rug measures 30 x 60...the star measures 21 inches across. BIG. I did the star in no time, but when it came time to do the background, I got stuck. I may reverse hook what is done on at least part of the background. Someday. When I finish this rug.
Here is Sally's version. She added a proddy edge...wide wool fringes.
Both of these rugs with their primitive colors are so much more dramatic in real life.
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.". Jeremiah 29:11

I think it is so pretty though. I can see why it is hard for you though. I think it would be awesome finished.
I have one more big a** rug that I need to finish and I have started and stopped so many times. Mainly because it is so big I hook and hook and never get anywhere. So I understand.
Have a great Friday!
I'm glad to finally see your rug. I've always been curious. I'm glad it's not a star shaped rug with a big a** on it. hahahehe!
Love it! Now get hookin' on it! lol! ;-)
Yours is coming along nicely, don't give up. Love the proddy edge, nice idea for a finish.
