Rug Finishing


https://halcyonyarn.com/yarn/001/halcyon-yarn-rug-wool

yesterday I started working on finishing
my small mats and rugs
ended up napping most of the day
 
today I got my unfinished rugs out
to see what colors of yarn I need to bind them with

I love the whipping of rugs
stitching the strips of wool on the back
signing my name in thread

good thing
because there are over a dozen 
in my stack

I have been so busy decluttering my sewing room
by selling this and that
it's been a real success for me
money for student loan
finding happy homes for patterns and wool
leaving only my favorites

Happy Sunday night!
I've seen the latest episode of Outlander already today
of course I'll need to watch it a few more times...

Love These Wool Balls



after purchasing some dryer balls last month
I don't know why I ever did laundry without them!

there are tons of instructions on Pinterest
the link above looks good


I have lots of colorful wool yarn
I've been meaning to overdye for years... 
this looks like a better use
great for gifts!


my NC sister is mooning over these...


scraps of yarn...or wool worms


my favorite

*****

I found my weavers (not monks) cloth this morning
after about an hour in the wool room

I left work last night to find a very flat tire
HUGE nail in it
so glad it was in the parking lot
and not on the way home

this very klutzy person does not change tires...
or use power tools
or climb ladders
I like all my fingers and toes just the way they are

*****

Wishing you a good weekend
I'll be working

thinking of all the men and women who served
to provide us with our freedom
we are very blessed
