Hello Dear Friends!
Yes... I am feeling all of that!
I woke up with INSPIRATION for a NEW NEEDLEPUNCH PATTERN! YES!!! And with any luck... it will be available by early next week!!! More on that VERY SOON! I PROMISE!!!
This rug has been a struggle... struggle with time and warp tension. I am DETERMINED to finish it and thread the loom for another one though! Hopefully this one will be completed tonight or tomorrow!
You may have seen this finish if you follow ~*primitivebettys*~ on Facebook. I found this neat old, desk box at a local shop... and added my touch to it! A sweet lil' sheepie hooked rug... a primly~barely filled pincushion (in a reclaimed copper box)... and a little fabric lining on the inside. I didn't bother to repaint it because the old white paint was pretty cool! I did, however, give it a nice wax with some furniture paste though.
This is what it looked like when I brought it home...
A little more Oxford Punching has happened here... 5 more wool fabric and wool yarn coasters...
And a lil' sheepie chair pad made from wool yarn...
I was MOTIVATED to finish them last night... and not let them sit as un~finished ditties!
Okay... I'm off to get some needlepunching DONE!
Wishing you all warm smiles...
Betty
