A green day at the shop and Win another pattern!

6/14/2013

Shane was busy in the dye pan yesterday pumping out some of our popular spot dyed wools. A full range of greens from yellow to blue and all in between. That's a lot of scrunching! From left to right the colours are as follows: Evergreen, Grass Green, Emerald, Meadow, Chartreuse, Juniper (new formula), Antique Green, Spring Green, Triton Sea and Mermaid Tail. These are but a few of our spots that can be found on our website under the wool category. http://www.encompassingdesigns.com/dyed-spots.html

I was remiss in not taking a couple of photos of Lauri Troutman and her friend Cathy when they visited my shop yesterday. I should go around with the camera strapped to my neck for photo opportunities. It's a mindset I need to embrace as everyday occurrences make for great little stories. Lauri and Cathy are in Nova Scotia for the opening of the North America Rug Hooking Museum this coming weekend and have made a trek across the province to visit as many rug hooking venues as possible. It was really nice chatting and I hope to see them again!

Two sisters, Gail Mueller and Cheri Hempseed dropped by the shop while visiting the area from Orillia, Ontario. It's delightful to chat with rug hooker from other provinces.

Today's blog is short. I've been working nights to get orders done up and the shop is so busy again this morning there's no time to write! So here's the pattern up for grabs today. Select a number from 1-50 and if you hit the number in my head it's yours! Leave your choice in the comments section of this blog. Good luck! Someone saw this "hot of the press" pattern this morning and bought it already so it's a hot one! A sweet and simple design. Sharla (named after a favorite childhood cousin from Springhill, NS) The pattern 28" x 43" - On Linen
