I love the pieces you're showing here. I have lots of felted wool, but haven't done anything with it yet. You inspire me to try. This blog hop is a wonderful idea. Enjoying "meeting" all of you.

I LOVE working with wool....but I have never only used one strand of floss.....I am going to try it out!
I am enjoying these hot days on the lake in Fergus Falls!

Mel

I look forward to each day of this designer hop!

Thanks for all the info on working with wool! I've done very small items because I'm not sure of myself yet, but your instructions will back me up when I try something larger!

Love your work!

Angela

I love wool applique, it is so much neater and faster than other.... Your work is gorgeous.

Sue H

The wool looks wonderful! Thank you for sharing.

Gran

Ah - it is now the 25th and I can enter your drawing.
It is so much fun reading your blog and I love working with wool too. The whole texture and use of embroidery stitches always makes a beautiful piece.
Thank you for your tutorial - I will be back. And thank your for the opportunity to participate.

Kim

I too love working with wool, but we don't have a very large selection of hand dyed wool in our area. I DO, though, have a pretty good stash of wool I've felted from thrift store blazers. Your tutorial was great inspiration for experimenting with different types of thread (I've been using perle, and you're right--it's a bit limited!) and stitches!

Cindi

I just started working with wool and I love it. Thanks for the tips.

xstpenguin

Oh good, I'm early for a change!

That wool looks really yummy, I do love wool, but I have a background in garment sewing - wool makes me thing of gorgeous skirts and jackets! I'd feel strange cutting it into such little pieces. But maybe I could get used to it for such great results!?

Thanks for the generous giveaway.

Cheers,
AJ
