Funny,Funny,Funny..

I love this lady's work! I hope to take a class with her someday.

I love this video! Can't tell you how many times I have see someone wearing something that caught my eye and all I could think of is "that would look great in one of my rugs."I love hooking with recycled wool.

Live Deeply and recycle something,

Guess What is Doing At Hogscald Holler....

Yes, it is snowing again here at the Holler.This is what it looked like this morning when I got up.Must not have been any wind with this snow storm.
The snow is just setting on the trees.
This is the view from my back door.The mountain goes right up from my back door.
If you look close you can see the snow coming down.
One more UFO is finished. I made 3 of these scarfs for Christmas gifts and I had enough yarn to make one more for myself.I had it started and just setting in a bag.But now it is all done and I have a new scarf.

With Valentine's day coming I thought I would make some heart pins.Here is a needle felted heart with little wool flowers.
This one is made with a strip on wool wound up and little wool flowers.

This are the same hearts that I made the candle mats out of.I thought they would make cute pins.
I think I like this one best.

Live Deeply and say"I love you" with you art.

Recycled wool into primitive folk art

I love to work with wool.Recycling old wool clothes is something I try to do anytime I can.Last month I taught my doll club how to dye recycled wool. This meeting we looked at ways of using the wool we dyed.

I made a cat and three dolls.I am very into primitive folk art.I think I got the look I was after using the old wool and old buttons.

Two of the dolls have wings cut from a scrap of blanket.All the stitching is on the outside of the doll.I really like that look for this doll.I also like using mismatched buttons for eyes.
