Started a new piece this weekend; calling it Fox Trot. It is drawn on white primitive linen...I didn't bother to serge the edges since it's a small piece. I rounded off the top corners to soften the look. So far I used Chestnut brown for the tree, variegated #3 for the leaves. and variegated #8 for the moon. I outlined the leaves with dark green yarn from my stash.

We now have over a dozen selections of Variegated fat quarters for you to choose from. And definitely more to come! These are exquisite one of a kind pieces with a multitude of colors on both sides. I love using these for rug hooking!

Here's a house blessing I hooked up with some left over wool from the PEACE DOVE. I made quillies circles for the flowers. I added a same bird and a bead from my collection. Please feel free to print a copy of the pattern.

I finished my PEACE DOVE. I backed it with a piece of mill dyed wool...a pretty blue herringbone and whipped stitched the edges with 6-ply embroidery floss. I have this design available as a hand drawn pattern on linen, a paper pater and a digital downloadable file.

I've been working on a new rug hooking project this past week. It's an adaption of a punched embroidery pattern of mine. On this one I'm using wool strips in a #6 cut and wool yarn, some sati ribbon...lots of texturing going on.

I have added a new section to our shop of Variegated multi colored wools. Available in fat quarters. These pieces are one of a kind and truly beautiful!

I decided to rework the flowers with a bluer pink, mauve. Now I just need to bind it. I was thinking about making it into a pillow with a shaggy trim made from strips of wool. (I was inspired by an old piece of Hungarian pottery.)

Started a new hooking project yesterday. The design is based on a Hungarian piece of vintage pottery. The dark color is a deep blue called After Midnight.  The other piece is a new Variegated wool, which is multi-colored in greens and gold. Love it! It is perfect for leaves. It's still dark here in the Pacific Northwest so the picture looks darker than it really is. I will post more pictures once I progress more.
