Description

The long awaited Beau to complement my previous work, The Vintage Bathing Beauty, is finally complete.  I’m delighted with the dapper charm that evolved with my rug hooking.  A day at the beach never seemed so inviting.

The Beau is hooked with a combination of new and vintage wools and a bit of yarn.  The beach ball is hooked with strips of color cut from a recycled cashmere scarf.  His “frame” is a door fashioned from old pickets and the handle is a salvaged bit of much loved rusty junk.

Overall measurements:  About 22″ wide, 40″ tall.

The mat/hooked portion measures about 14.5″ wide and 24.5″ tall.
