A funny to tickle the fiber artist's bone. Wool can mean
fabric or yarn so it covers the lot of us!

| GEESE IN THE GARDEN, designed by me and beautifully hooked by Jean Wentzell. We made a kit for a lucky client this week. A lot of dyeing and wool but worth getting one of our quality kits.  | BUTTERFLIES (Oval) Size: 27" x 35", Beautifully hooked by Doreen Burke, pattern also comes in a rectangle.  |
Susan Turnbull, Kentville, NS made a few personal changes to our design to personalize it. In time for he Canada Day 150 Birthday coming up.
| I am over the moon. Yoshiho Nara from Japan, designed and sent two beautiful Christmas stocking designs for our website. She hooked this Kitty one and it is awesome! So original and beautifully hooked! Thank you so much Yoshiho!  | Another little funny for the fiber art lover.  |
William Morris Hammersmith runner is not made into this fantastic rectangle rug. We're calling it simply Morris Hammersmith II but there is nothing simple about this design. Don't let it daunt you, once the colour plan is decided it is a repeat pattern so then it practically hooks itself!

A new pattern I've been working on. It marries paisley with an Autumn harvest. I asked the folks on FB to help come up with a name and we like "ACORNUCOPEA" suggested by Sue Doughty. There are pomegranates, acorns, pumpkins, sunflowers, and all sorts of leaves. We have it in two sizes on linen. 32" x 26" - and 40" x 30"
This was the second rug I hooked 18 years ago. It was a gift for my parents-in-law.
Jim was pilot hence the Claresholm Crest in the center and the
rest was a story of their likes, loves and lives. Even in the beginning I loved the primary colours, things haven't changed.
