New Releases And A Stitching Tip...

'Cleome' Punch Needle Design by Rose Clay at ThreeSheepStudio.com  , click on 'Studio/Shop'

 Spring has arrived here in Pennsylvania !
I've been working on several
projects, all at once...




'Cleome' Punch Needle Design by Rose Clay at ThreeSheepStudio.com  , click on 'Studio/Shop'

'Cleome'
The Cleome is also known as
the 'Spider Flower'.

A combination of Punch Needle
and Wool Applique...
Deep Berries and Plum petals
and a wool panel with buttons,
make a lovely hanging mat.

This design was 'finished' with a 
wool backing, a bone ring for hanging
and a hand dyed ribbon.

To learn more, go to...




'Morning Dove' Punch Needle Design by Rose Clay at ThreeSheepStudio.com , click on 'Studio/Shop'.

'Morning Dove'
A simple Fraktur style design, 
that I have backed with wool.

I named this design for the Dove 
I hear in the 'morning',
outside my window...
The Morning Dove.

The Mourning Dove holds a 
special place in Folklore...
For soldiers, to hear or see one, 
it meant that no one was around.
Doves are seen as a sign of
Good Luck and Peace.

To learn more about this 
Punch Needle Design,
go to...






A Stitching Tip:
When sewing through
multiple layers of fabric,
I use a set of silicon Needle Pullers...
they help firmly grip the needle
and allow me to easily pull the needle
through the fabric.
They are not for 'pushing' the needle,
but they work super well
for providing the grip
needed to pull the needle through.

I purchased my set on Amazon,
in a size Medium/Large.

Have a wonderful creative Spring !

I'm a Wool Penny girl,

There is just something about 
Wool Pennies that captures
my attention...




Wool Pennies cut and ready for a project - ThreeSheepStudio.com

Usually when I start cutting, 
I keep going until I can cut no more.
I like having a stash to grab from.
The small penny in my hand is 1/2 inch.

This 'Black Licorice' table runner
has been spoken for...

I loved the stormy shades of wool
used in this runner
and would like to make another...
not the exact same, but similar.

Two New Stitching Buddies...

Pumpkin Wool Applique by Rose Clay at ThreeSheepStudio.com

Pumpkins and Autumn 'things'
have been on my mind.
August always brings very hot days,
but the night time temps begin 
to slip, which means the morning
is just a little cooler and sometimes
layered in fog.



Pumpkin Wool Applique by Rose Clay at ThreeSheepStudio.com

The wool and threads are once again
on my worktable.  Hand Embroidery
 is my 'go to' to embellish wool fabric.



My Stitching Buddy !

This girl has been my 
'stitching pal' for the last week, 
while daughter #2 was at the Beach.
Can you not just get lost in those 
big brown eyes ? 



Stormy Philadelphia Cityscape

I'm not a city girl at all.
In fact, when traveling, I will always take
the country 'back road' scenic route.
But, I found myself on the road 
to Philadelphia recently - It was
a sweltering hot and stormy afternoon
and I was taken by the beauty of
the dark sky and the cityscape.



Needlepoint shop in Lititz, PA

I arrived home to find this...
in my hometown !
I am not a Needlepointer
(only because there are not 
enough hours in the day,
to do all I want !)
But, I do use many of the same threads
used for Needlepoint, in my work.
And the best part ?
(A proud Mama moment)
My #2 daughter has now
picked up Needlepoint and is 
loving it.  I now have a new Stitching buddy !

Enjoy your day...
Rose

Small candy tins are calling my name...




Small Stitching Treasures - Candy Tins covered with wool, embroidery, buttons and beads by Rose Clay at ThreeSheepStudio.com

I guess I have a habit of collecting 
all kinds of small sturdy containers,
with the idea of repurposing them...

A few scraps of wool...

Some scattered embroidery stitches....

A fancy button and some glass beads...




Small Stitching Treasures - Candy Tins covered with wool, embroidery, buttons and beads by Rose Clay at ThreeSheepStudio.com

These small tins, that once held candy,
now hold my pins or other 
small stitching supplies,
or 'whatnots'.

I have these sitting around my Studio...
they always make me smile
