Well Worth The Sore Fingers


Whipping rugs and mats but the pile is dwindling and I'm loving the results. This is one of my favorites and it is designed by Laurie of LJ Fibers. Now to find a place to hang it to enjoy all the beautiful wools that went into this piece.



Next is an oxford punch piece made from #6 wool strips...just a bit hickety ~ pickety but much to my liking.



Found this lil' tree buried in a pile from long ago but it's finished and ready to enjoy.



This lil' snowguy is also oxford punched with wool strips and it is about coaster size.

Well I'm packed up and ready to go enjoy Saturday with Pati Jane and Sandra at the Loose Caboose Festival tomorrow. It's going to be another hot day but hopefully we have picked a spot that will be in the shade a good part of the day!

Wishing each of you a safe and happy Labor Day weekend.

Happy Trails....Ginger

Hope you Pati Jane and Sandra have it made in the shade! For sure, you'll have some fun together. Hope you will be taking a big jug of lemonade or sweet tea!

Love the rugs!
