I drilled holes on a line, parallel to, and 4-1/2 inches from outside edge. Fore hole is 1-1/2 inch from front edge, aft hole 1 inch back. This is contingent on your hatch's placement relative to the front edge of the lip / curb / coaming. Measure carefully!
Not bad for a Prosumer/Point & Shoot camera. Love how the bee latches on to the leaves of the flower. This was taken in my back garden :)
This owl was named after my baby Eli! He's my beagle/lab mix (or something). I used earthy colors in this one and I love how the blue stands out!

This is an old latch hook rug.
It's not antique, it's old though, probably 1960's (give or take a decade....sorry...I don't know.)
in addition to the 4 corner latches, the center of the cover is latched as well. This view is the left side of the bed approximately in the center. There is a bar that slides along the bed rail that hooks into the bracket when the cover is completely closed.

When I finally succumbed to owning a mobile phone in 2009 I was dismayed to learn the pitfalls of ‘predictive text’. I was sending text messages that didn’t make sense, or made sense, but were not what I intended. For example ‘r u home?’ became ‘r u good?’ – a nice enquiry, but essentially not helpful.
To overcome my dislike of ‘predictive text’ I decided to embrace it and explore other words that might be interchanged automatically by my hand held social innovator. I paired interchangeable words that created plays on words – a reminder of the many layers and textures of our texted text.
I chose the technique of latch hook to create these works. I have never really enjoyed this technique but was curious to see if I could use it in a contemporary context. The textured nature of latch hook and the possibility to depict text meant that this technique was well suited to my theme.
Latch hook is here presented in a wall mounted decorative form, as well as the more traditional form as a functional object – the cushion.
