I recently visited Woolen Memories for a Wool Fix !!! I have always Loved this pattern that Sandy had called Chickens And Ducks . It is an adaptation of an antique. A friend hooked this a few years ago and I loved hers . I am having so much hooking this !!! It's more fun than cleaning
A good friend asked me for a green colored bench with a hooked design for the top . She is an amazing gardener . She grows her vegetables from seeds , some saved by her Father every year . She has everything from lettace , tomatoes , corn and potatoes to pumpkins ! I knew to hook a design with those on the top of the bench would be another fine cut project ! I drew my design to show her what I was thinking and luckily she was so excited about it .
I needed a little brake from hooking . I recently purchased the new Smart Punch Needle tool from NotForgotten Farm . It is great ! There is an indentation for your thumb , so you always have the needle in the correct position.
Still hot & humid here in New England and today it is pouring rain .....a good day to play with my threads & think of a new design to hook !
Happy July !!! It is Hot , Humid & very Hazy from the fires in Canada . Sounds like the fires could continue to burn for a while .
Today I finished hooking the Hydrangeas for the top of one of the nice benches my husband makes. My sister-in-law just Loves it ! My brother will give it to her for her Birthday .
Hope everyone has a Happy & safe 4 Th of July !!!!
