Today's blog post features two rugs! They are a matching couple and as sweet as can be!
I have seen a lot of people posting pictures of Bittersweet Witch on Facebook but did you know she has a mate? Let's shine a spotlight on these two delightful patterns.

Hooked by Rhonda Thistlethwaite
As you well know, I am a fan of teal, aqua, and turquoise. It's no wonder, then, that I love the background wool that Rhonda used in her rugs! I think the turquoise and the orange colors work really well together. I also like the beading details on the apron because it adds a touch of interesting texture.
Hooked by Kathy Bonnes
Here is a different color plan that is just as wonderful! Kathy sewed an old pocket watch to the pattern instead of hooking it, which really gave it a personal touch. I also like the way she hooked the background in both. She hooked it in vertical lines and added a smattering of some of the wool strips used in Jack's jacket. I think it makes her rugs look a little more contemporary.
Both ladies hooked their mats so that Jack and Witch are wearing outfits that coordinate with each other...a wonderful way to tie things together. These lovely pair can be displayed any time of year, not just for Halloween!
The great thing about these patterns are that they are not too big, will hook up quickly and be ready for your fall decor in the blink of an eye!
Dimensions are 11" wide by 35.5" long.
