Here is my project included in the first issue for you...

a combination of dimensional punch needle and primitive rug hooking, 

... and a design I named

"Waiting"

{as in;  waiting for the magazine to get here, 

waiting for those robin's eggs to hatch, waiting for Spring!}

i hope you love it :)

If you haven't already subscribed to Wool Works Magazine, 

well, what are you waiting for?

{pun intended}

And

here is my Day Eleven finish for the

1 Year of Stitches Project ~

I added a teeny little sheep!

 

I thought it would be apropos for the 'wool works' theme of this posting today ~

just look at those minuscule french knots!  

 I spent the majority of yesterday on the sofa ~

have been hit with a cold that has me coughing and feeling under the weather.

hot tea with ginger, lemon & honey

lots of water

tissues

heating pad {read: CAT!}

and surrounded with magazines and piles of wool, threads & linen.

'Peter has been taking good care of me, and today I am making chicken soup.

 It's warmer out 'there' today, melting the snow & ice a bit....

~ but I'll opt to stay put by the wood stove.

 

Blessings from the Farm ~
