Okay, so this is definitely blog-worthy! I picked up a copy of
Architectural Digest the other day for the first time in a year or two – it was a special issue on country homes, and I thought that it might be inspiring. I was using my “rugdar” to search for hooked rugs and came across this beautiful old rug…
The caption reads, “Five cats adorn a hand-hooked, circa 1925 America rug, $45,000, from folk art dealer Fred Giampietro …. The scale of the decorative rug is unusually large for a pictorial design.” Nope, that’s not a typo. Oh, if I could sell my work for those prices, how different life would be…
