Tiny Little Loops...

Thousands of them...
tiny little loops coming together to form
a unique needlework design ~
I'd have to say, that aside from cross stitching,
Punch Needle
is my favorite form of needlework...


it soothes my soul ~
busies my hands
& fills my desire to create with fiber...
I crave the colors of the threads
and the softness of the weavers cloth...

the palette that you see above consists of the following
DMC thread colors:
924
926
3813
524
372
844
420
&
422

a lighter, yet comforting palette that I picked to remind me of
Bluebirds, Nests, Robins Eggs
Hay, Yarrow & Moss...

What is your favorite color palette?
or does it change as often as mine :)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
THE SHOP WILL BE CLOSED TODAY

Hannah has another Snow Day home
and Felicia will be coming over to play in my fabrics & trims with me!

I'll take some pics of our projects, but here's a hint:
All you NEED is LOVE !

Love the threads you have chosen.....very soft and pretty. I do love needle punch, it is so satisfying and I know I can finish a project quickly. The joy of seeing a pretty stitched piece that looks like a miniature rug makes me happy. Can't wait to see this one! Have a fun day of punching!
Hugs,
