New on the Frame

Here's my next rug project.  It is a lovely little doodle by Betty at primitivebettys.  I love her stuff!  They are so lighthearted.  She calls it "Symple Scissor".  I thought it would be good to work on to take my to a next level.

I've pulled some wool to begin:

Once again, the camera lies.  The light blue is really a darker teal color and the purple next to it is some of the brown I dyed the other day!  Oh well.


I spun and spun today.  I'll have some pictures of finished skeins tomorrow when they dry.  I went to the thrift store yesterday and scored a little applique kit.

It has some nice templates and a couple of patterns in it.  Not bad for a buck.

My little rug hooking group did fill and we'll start on Wednesday after school.  These templates could be very helpful for that class.  I'll keep you updated on what the kids can do.  One of my boys, who is a good little weaver, wants to barter me for either a skein of yarn or a small hooked mat for a woven wall hanging!  He's quite the fiber artist!  


We had actual melting today, but I feel it was actually just messing with our psyches.  
Have a lovely evening everyone!
