Here are some closeups of elements that I used in my rug. They are slightly different because I am hooking on a different pattern. The Conquest of Queen Anne does not have the circle border, but you can see how I handled the scroll and hit and miss. I especially like the way that the hit and miss is crooked.

Here you can see the small leaf clusters. I used six to eight different wools in each small petal. I find that mixing a lot of different wools together makes the hooking more interesting — to look at and to do and because I am using every green all over the rug they are automatically balanced.

I added small lines in the petals of the flower with the fried egg center. It helps to break up the space and gives me another opportunity to bring in more wools.

Wools used in the example above:

For most of the flower fill:

R10 Christmas - Irish weave

Christmas has been my favorite red wool since I discovered it. The original one was a British wool that was stringy unless you washed it multiple time. This one has slightly duller colors but the weave of the wool makes it a joy to hook.

For the scroll fill:

Y2 Soft Gold Plaid - Most Useable

If you tried to use yellow in a rug, you already know how hard it can be to find the right one. This is the most useable gold I have found. Works with most color combinations. One of my favorites. For a bit more zing, see Y1.
