Keeping up

I always mean to post more often. It is not that I am weak on ideas and thoughts. I am constantly busy designing and making new pieces.

You can blame part of it on Pinterest as I only have to post a photo. The other part is I fail to use the computer as much as others seem to. I love technology yet I seem to get stuck in a rut. I use it a lot then hardly at all. Remember it, and the cycle starts again.

I think the biggest problem is time. I want more, yet no one will sell me theirs. So I only have what I have, and it seems to vanish before I accomplish all I dream of doing.

No matter, I have written a post for you and now will add some photos of current projects.

New Approach To Freeform

I have been using glass pieces made by Jody of Greenbean Studio to create freeform necklaces. Here is two of them I recently finished.

what is it?

Can you see anything in this picture?

Phoenix extremes

Last week we had a bit of weather, hail and very cold rain, then the sun and 80 degrees just in time for the shearing.

Meet Velvet who has provided me with a beautiful portion of her fleece. (She is the one with the brown fleece)

While carding her clean washed wool my three grandchildren decided the best way to offer the small nubs and second cuts to the birds for nest building, was by decorating a desert plant that is getting ready to bloom. Won't the flowers be surprised to see the wool waiting to greet them!

Dye Study

This is yarn we dyed in our Master Spinning "dye study day".

I am planning a free form project.

thoughts

I love design work.  Picking apart stitch patterns.
