Magdalena's Dog and Crows, 24 X 31, this rug is very easy to hook if you treat the "hit n miss" area as the border and the light area around the dog and crows as the background.
Magdalena Briner was born in 1839 in Perry County, PA. She married Jacob Eby in 1855, had a daughter, Ellen, in 1857 and was widowed in 1858.
Magdalena's great granddaughter remembers that there were hooked rugs throughout the house but that to her knowledge neither her mother nor Ellen ever hooked.
On December 8, 1994, 23-year-old Magdalena went to Suresh Gandotra's clinic, El Norte Clinica Medica, for what she thought was a second-trimester abortion.
Magdalena isn't the only woman who ended up having an abortion far later in the pregnancy than she intended.
Magdalena's uterus was ruptured, with a fetal limb protruding into her abdomen.
