I've been working with hand dyed
pink houndstooth wool
and that black and white checked wool,
that I love so much !
Creating pennies with beaded centers.
Embroidering dainty pink roses.
Hand dyed green wool is next...
Working on leaves...
can you tell yet what this will become ??
Strawberries...
BIG Strawberries !
Approximately 12in. x 9in.
So much fun to make !
This happens to be my jam,
at the moment... poured over ice...
perfectly refreshing on a hot day.
Although, today is anything but hot.
50's, breezy and feels very cool.
The pool is opening in just 3 weeks...
right ???
