Designed by Pearl McGown and hooked by Tracy Holmes, Cornwall, Prince Edward Island, Canada, 2008.
Featured in: Celebration XIX

"Morris Forest is a Pearl McGown design. What caught my eye about this William Morris design was how friendly and cute the animals look. I hand dyed all the wool using Magic Capet Dyes. This rug is hooked with a #4 cut wool on linen. I enjoyed hooking this rug as the colors were subtle and beautiful. One of the biggest challenges here was the quantity of wool required as it is a big rug 54" x 30". It was difficult at times to keep all the scrolls straight. I found this rug very rewarding."
