Happy Monday my friends!

Color

seeing this basket full of color and potential

has made me itch to get out the dye pots

I have the wool

the dyes 

favorite formulas

now to find the time...



More or Less

naturally dyed Easter eggs

 color and more color

less color

still inspiring

monochromatic

my favorite color scheme

Do you have trouble choosing the right colors

for you projects?

for me choosing the color isn't usually the problem

it's more color 

or less color...

soothing or exhilarating?

a wonderful dilemma

+ + + + + + +

today is a day of rest for me

at least before work

I'll be on the couch

just thinking about color

yesterday was a very long day

until 10 PM...

Dad was transferred to the 

skilled nursing facility

for rehab...hooray!

but he's had a huge increase in confusion

during the middle of the day

that seems so weird

normally you would expect sundown

hoping it's a side effect of medicines

they started and stopped in hospital

broke my heart in a a million tiny pieces

to leave him there last night 

we agreed that the count down is on

for him to do his therapy

and get back home

thanks again for your prayers

and emails

they are greatly appreciated

Color Choices

when I started stitching these

I couldn't decide on a color scheme

so I stitched both

the blue and brown 

will have blue borders

blue or brown binding?

probably brown

the green and red

will have red borders

green binding

After 5 days off

I go back to work today...bleh!

would much rather stay home and stitch

it's still cold 

with more on the way

Random Inpsirations

all the photos where found in Pinterest...

for one reason or another they inspire me

if I had a red barn

this would definitely be on the side

love this

for all my floss and pearl cotton

the colors....

perfect

simple cat...perfect

I've been busy helping the folks...

Mom's been feeling sick for about a month

long trip to ER yesterday

specialist appointment next week

Blood work and imaging tests show all is well...

but she sure doesn't feel that way

Color Inspiration

this antique rug is the inspiration

for the wool I'll be using for the latest

antique challenge rug...

have you started hooking or punching yours?

I've been taking plenty of photos

with my new camera

just need to figure out how to

transfer them to the computer...

me and my technical issues

My sister should be receiving her

birthday package tomorrow

I have photos of the finished quilt

plus the label...

need to get busy with more labels...

I have my wool worms organized

border replaced on one patch blue quilt

a small hooked rug completed from my worm baskets...

a new little quilt in the works

Too bad I have to go to work

I could get so much more done!
