Sweet September
I've been waiting for you !
Time to bring out the woolens...
piles of wool snippets, as wool pennies are cut...
Background wools are chosen...
Candy Apple Red Stripe
Luscious Persimmon Orange Stripe
Dusky Purple and Eggplant Plaid
I'm using mostly textures from my stash.
I used a half dollar and a dime for the penny size...
These skeleton keys are about 8 inches long
and are heavy cast iron...
when I purchased them
(I bought every single one the shop owner had !),
I wasn't sure what I planned on doing with them -
But, they were calling my name...
