Happy New Year.
Its been a long time.
So many wonderful things have happened in these past several months.
I switched gears a little to stay a float in this trying economy. I still have my rug hooking studio and teach regularly but I also started needle felting about a year or so ago and to my surprise the little animals I recreate have had enormous popularity.
I thoroughly enjoy watching their sweet little personalities come to life.


 Making Plans for Dinner

 
These are a couple of pincushions I whipped up for The Designer Craftsman show this weekend.
They were allot of fun to do but allot of work too.

After a nice long nap by the fireplace the girls take time out for a quick photo shoot.

The girls. Never wake sleeping babies has always been my motto.
