Wool Finishes



Do you enjoy handwork with wool? It's amazing how much the needle enjoys passing through wool. I thought I'd better show some of my wool finishes before I give them away. There's another one of these in the works for me. Yes, I am originally from IL, but prefer the Southern California winters so much better. This is a kit from Primitive Gatherings. It's meant to be a pin cushion, but framed would be better.



This next  one is just one month of a BOM put on by Farmhouse Threads. Each month a different designer shared a free pattern and also made kits available for a small charge. A whole quilt didn't interest me but figured this block would look nice framed.

I stitched with like colored threads but wish I had used a primitive stich with black thread. There are cross stitches on the basket. Nice touch by the designer, Shawn at Rusty Crow


Now I am on to Valentine's Day projects. Those always warm the heart.
