New Wool


My wool order is here, Yippy!  Aay the joy of new wool!

The other side of the table is just as full and I have this really nice photo showing all the beautiful wool, but, the system won't let me post it.  No photo for you to see, sorry.


A couple weekends ago I bought some great tables at a local yard sale.  I painted the legs black to match the rest of the furniture.  As you can see they are already buried underneath a ton of wool.  I am pleased with how it all looks.  The new wool is so fabulous. 

Can you find Otis, my beagle?  His back legs are showing.  They enjoy hanging out with me in the wool room.  

Don't forget this Saturday the Hands and Hearts Antietam Fiber Artist Hooking Guild will be meeting at the Boonsboro Free Library in Boonsboro, MD 11:00 to 2:00.  Hope to see you there. 

I almost forgot.  Our guild is hosting a three day workshop with Kris Miller in November.  We have a couple spots left if you would like to sign up or if you want more information, just email me.  The deposit to hold your spot is $50.00.  It looks like it will be a great time.

    Well go figure. I wrote down your blog address, even commented on a past post. "Thought" I added you to my side bar. Even remember doing it, but I guess I didn't hit save lol. Not good with computers. Did it again and made sure to hit save.
    Great wools! I'd say you have a "little" lol. WOW, I feel good. I thought I had a lot. All of a sudden I don't feel so overwhelmed :). Your little studio looks wonderful. Love how it's all displayed. And I think I saw your beagles little back legs in one of the shots!
    Hope your class gets filled!

    Beautiful pictures of furniture, wool and puppy-dog legs. Also love your hooked piece that is used for the top of your blog. Now I need to figure out how to include a picture of something on my blog.
