Things at home went not too bad - there was one little caregiver melt down on Thursday night but my Auntie managed to get through it until I got home. I spent today trying to get back to the routine here.
I missed my hooking so as soon as I post this blog, I'm grabbing the frame. But first I should show you the stuff I bought at the "Encompassing Designs" Rug hooking shop I found in Mahone Bay.
Isn't this wool gorgeous? I couldn't resist.
And this is the Angel pattern I had to have. I saw her hooked and finished hanging beside the door as I went to leave the shop. I instantly fell in love with her and although it is a larger pattern than I was looking for, I just couldn't leave her.
Apparently I have NO impulse control.

Beautiful wool.
ReplyDeleteLove the angel pattern, I understand why you couldn't leave her.
Aren't you glad we outgrow impulse control.
Haha, yes Katie - sometimes it feels good to "throw caution to the wind".
ReplyDeleteNice to know you had a good trip, Kim. Wow, the wool is gorgeous.... I have some new "stuff" that I ordered from Deanne Fitzpatrick's studio. Absolutely insane. Some of it I'm not sure how to use it..... :) Guess I'll find a way. I am happy I am not near a store that sells all this great stuff. I'm sure my credit card would explode... LOL!!! Happy hooking....
ReplyDeleteThose colors are just as beautiful as you explained in your message on Friday.
ReplyDeleteImpulse control is highly over rated. The wool is lovely and we all need another angel in our life. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteKim,
ReplyDeleteI agree with Debra and more angels, who could resist!
By the way, my icons are about 8 x 8 and total of 12 with a border.
