Brrrrrrr..... cold wet snowy icy. We've had it all, but not nearly as bad as many other parts of the country. Actually pretty typical January, one extreme to the other! Perfect days to get in the studio and create.
One project I've been working on is some triloom weaving. I've been weaving a pretty melon cotton shawl for spring.
I think it will be just the right touch with a white tee shirt. Triloom weaving is so relaxing..... I love listening to podcasts or books while weaving. Sometimes even a movie on Netflix!
I've also been having fun with flowers. I purchased the Raggedy Flower pattern from Primitive Spirit and spent an afternoon hooking pretty posies.
It's fun to make them into little pins. Directions for all of this comes with the pattern.
Here I have it pinned to my navy pea coat. You can see a peek of a bag I needlepointed at least 20 years ago. The pattern is from an old folk art needle point book by Mary Norden. I've needlepointed several of her patterns..... not doing needlepoint these days, but who knows, may decide to give it a go again.
I will soon be teaching a rug hooking class at Pheonas's. Pheonas's is a CHARMING historical home turned into a shop and studio in Billings, Missouri.
Over the course of two classes we will hook and assemble this pretty pansy pillow.
We will meet Saturday February the 9th from 1:00-4:00 for hooking, and Saturday March 2nd at the same time for assembling. All materials are provided, and no experience is necessary. Great time of year to learn a new skill, or add some additional techniques to your rug hooking repertoire.
Hope you're warm and cozy.
