Story about the rug

Map of Nova Scotia. In this unique map you can see the counties of Nova Scotia each outlined in green. In the top left and bottom right corners are the flowers that are familiar in rugs hooked by Ethel Bezanson. The other two corners have a maple leave, a leaf and a shamrock. A very unique design.
It is hooked with recycled materials on burlap backing. The edges are whip stitched with yarn and the outside edge is crocheted.
