Icy...

the wind, ice, sub-zero temps linger and more snow is on the way

I AM READY FOR SPRING
Tho' inside the studio today it was warm and cozy...a couple hooker friends
who always bring a smile...
one close to finishing a BIG rug...one starting something new

...shoppers gathering wool for a variety of projects...some Springy...some to while away the snowy days ahead!

In between orders and finishing goods for the March 1st Early Work Mercantile update...
I've been working on the 2nd part of Pines to Prairie

the Part One kits are almost ready to ship out...just waiting for a wool order to arrive so I can finish dyeing up some of the background! It's one of my favorite colors...I call it Garden Shed...kind of a dingy greyish green...wonderful over all sorts of light textures!

I'm loving how the random border...which is Part Two of this year's annual project...is working out...
very old looking...just as I wanted it to be!

I'm glad to have a cozy rug to work on these cold and icy days...
Be safe and warm ~ L

    Love the rug! We have awaken to snow the last two mornings - ugh. Today we are supposed to start our seeds inside says Father Almanac - I'm not too sure.

    Laurie,
    We have the same weather as you. Great hooking a rug weather! Love the border in your rug. Really adds a nice touch. That greyish green wool is yummy. Also wanted to say I enjoyed seeing you in Folk magazine. Have a great day. Hugs, Lori

      Sorry for the delete and then repost...I messed up.

      Yukky cold down south here in Wisconsin too...drizzly and pure cold.
      I'm bringing out my Geraniums to put around the house just to spark things up - no more drab for me.

      Oh to join in hooking with you....the things I could learn and the wool I could do damage to...LOL

      I need to check out your new wools.
      Stay warm.
