Story about the rug

This pink rose chair pad is hooked using new and recycled wool strips on burlap backing. The edges are whip stitched. Fabric is sewn to the backing to create a chair pad. This was one of Beulah’s earlier hooked pieces. She was a self-taught rug hooker and attended many community workshops. She also enjoyed quilting, knitting, sewing and baking. She lived for many years in the community of Weston, NS. Beulah Dorey: 1939-2023
