The Dye Pots Are Out

http://altoonsultan.blogspot.com/2009/08/dyeing-day.html

I found the above photo on Pinterest

then followed the link to the blog

very good reading...

My dye pots are full

at the moment there are three pots of green

simmering away

it's a work day so only those today

I'm getting ready to open my etsy store again

FB buyers made me dizzy over the weekend

think it will be easier to just sell out right 

we'll see

I'm very happy with all the sales I made this year

a good dent has been made in the sewing room,

the wool room and a debt or two

I'll let you know when the shop is open

I'm going to do wool ...over dyed for now,

cotton bundles...so much awesome Moda and such from the past

finished hooked rugs and other decor

whatever I can live without

it's a dreary day in Ohio

good for dyeing

not so bad for going to work

Etsy Destash

nine patch obsession continues...

update...this quilt is an inspiration
not one I've stitched
found the photo on Pinterest
labeled 1877 or 87

my etsy shop should be ready some time 

later tomorrow 

this photo taking is for the birds

would rather be hooking or stitching

Merrie Wynter again

I've had some requests for this booklet

so have listed it on etsy.com again...

click on the photo in the right hand column

to take you there...

Thanks a bunch!

Plans are to get some other

things listed this weekend...

destash

some of my

patterns on linen and weavers

I've been battling a cold all week

so rest is priority one

which the cats love

since they nap on top of me!

Hooking Sunflowers

this week

there are two sunflowers rugs

on the hooking frames at my house...

the first is for me

inspired by the photos for sale found on

etsy.com

I finally picked up this book the other day

there are so many great patterns

in addition to the

wonderful quilt...

am hooking my version

of the Catnip pattern

for Mom

~~~

photos of my WIP soon

More DESTASH

all my Lori Brechlin

booklets

are listed on eBay...

seems to me

they are all out of print

and full of goodies

another near perfect

copy of this

Looking forward to some
empty shelves and baskets
in the sewing room

So I can move
my supplies
and stash
from the living room
and dining room
and...

You get the picture
an abundance
that is creating a
block to my creativity

I hope that's the problem...

I've added more to the etsy shop too

DESTASH Time

Yes

I am shouting

between my stuff

Mom's stash

plus a huge bag of

patterns

from my sister Deb

...

the shelves

and baskets are

overflowing

I've listed a bunch

of items

on esty

with many more

on the way

more

issues of

Wool Street Journal

Rug Hooking Magazine

Mercantile Gatherings
