Progress from last night's stitching while watching the 4th episode of the Civil War on PBS...
I love Ken Burn's work...
his words...
images...
and the chosen music touches my soul.
Yesterday was spent tidying up the studio for Saturday's hooking/stitching group...
especially the wool room...
Amazing how out of control this room can get...
but for now it's tidy...ready and waiting for wooly friends;)
It will be good to welcome everyone back to the studio...

Hello Dear Friends…
Altho’ it is the middle of November, it sure feels like January
I know many of you are experiencing the same…
Good weather to hunker down under a good rug project;)
I’m working on the design for the 2015 Annual Rug Project.
After the appeal and success of last year’s project, Primitive Medallions…I admit that this year’s choice was very difficult for me.
There are loads of sketches on my drawing table…
And the one that kept popping to the top is a prim pictorial I’ve named “On The Hill”.
It measures 22” x 34” and like last year will be a THREE part project.
...linen pattern and 1st wool kit will ship in January 2014
Even tho’ the cost of materials keeps going up, I’m hoping to keep pricing the same!
I know many of you would like to include the Annual Rug Project on your list to Santa…
So I hope to be able to have details on the website and do a proper unveiling soon!
Keep safe and warm, ♥ ~L
Hello Friends...
How can it be that another month is coming to an end?
Springtime is busy around here with shows...so I'm glad that Summer is upon us and we can settle back into visiting at the monthly in studio Hooking~Stitching Groups!
Summer often brings travelers through the area...it is always a treat for me to welcome cyber-wooly friends to the studio...ANY day!
Today, I'm finishing up goods for tonight's Early Work Mercantile update...
A variety of Needle Punched Pins and a Hearts and Tulips Hooked Pillow
A few stitches left...hoping to make the MidNight deadline!
Then it's back to working on a few commissioned peices
...with breaks to pull a few weeds!
A BIG Thank You for your comments and generous bids on the We Unite For Oklahoma
Auctions. I'm happy my Spring Quilt hooked mat and Wooly Ornament raised a good amount and 100% of it was forwarded to the Red Cross to help those in need in Oklahoma!!!
Hope the sun is shining on YOU ~L
Who comes with Summer to this earth
And owes to June her day of birth,
With ring of Agate on her hand,
Can health, wealth, and long life command
