Rose Rug September 1948 finished - sort of

This is a pretty straighforward pattern and yet, not one of my favorites.    I just did one block and added an extra border and remembered that I don't really like going around rectangles.    I usually get the corners not quite right or somehow miss a stitch.   I've tried marking the corners and that helps a little bit but it's one of the things I struggle with in crochet.  

The middle cream section is done in rows and then you crochet a border around it.   I do like the way the spike stitches look on this and if this was done well would make a pretty nice rug.   I used Red Heart Super Saver or the equivalent yarn from other brands for the background and Scheepjes Catona for the cross-stitch part.

I just did part of the cross-stitch in the center because I think I'm going to take it out and put a green "L" in the center.

    I'm from Minnesota and have been crocheting since 2003.  I inherited a box full of Workbasket Magazines from my mother-in-law and became obsessed with the vintage patterns.
