OVER DYEING WOOL

While we were having a blizzard outside, I rolled up my sleeves to learn how to over dye wool. Something that I wanted to do ever since I hooked my first coaster! I think that I am Hooked! haha... The one thing that I have learned is that you really cannot may too many mistakes except for if you would want to attain the the same exact color everytime. Her are a few pictures to show you my first attempt!

Wool Applique in the works sort of

This is a start of my next class in February. this is all made of wool and the details will be hand stitched. This is my own design and I am thinking it up as I go. HA. The problem is, I have a cat that loves to wool applique too. By the time I placed all the pieces in it's place without attaching them, my cat, Camie(short for Chamomile) flipped all my wool piece on the floor and astated to bat them around the room. Ugh!! :) Back to square one again!!

NEXT RUG HOOKING PROJECT

This is my next hooking project. I will be teaching this class on march 19th from 9:00 to 4:00/$28.00/carry in meal..pattern on monks cloth and some wool provided. Bring some felted wool to strip and share. I really enjoy rug hooking and this mat is no exception. Love the colors and the design.

Never enough time!

So sorry for the absence of posting. I have been very busy with my open house and my primitive show in the last few months. It will slow down after Christmas so I will be getting back to my normal things soon!! Thanks for being patient!! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
