She calls it Sun Kissed and trust me - her work is perfect. Here is my little sun kissed quilt.
Thank you Jacque. I love it. Well that is the gift part of this post. Now for the mess......
My hooking supplies are a MESS. Today I got out a piece of burlap and drew out a little primitive snowman. I figured I could hook the majority of it from the scrap bag. I have little bags of wool (cut and un-cut) tucked all over this house. I wasted so much time looking around for a certain bag with the right colors. Arrrgh, I need an extra room in this house. I got so fed up looking that I gave up.
But at least the pattern is drawn. Maybe tomorrow I will have the patience to attempt to organize the wool. When I win the lottery I will build myself a little studio. (Yeah, keep dreamin Kim )
But for now it is like a treasure hunt to find stuff.
Jacque's quilts are a work of art. I hope you find your wool stash. My "studio" is currently a mess as well. I dumped all my wool into that rolling cart. There's no rhyme or reason to it! I just hope the moths don't find it! Have a good weekend!
ReplyDeleteI have stuff scattered everywhere. I sometimes think I will have it all in one place but hey, think of the exercise you get trying to find it.
ReplyDeleteI love the little quilt Jacque made you, it is so pretty.
I am so glad you won. I can't wait to see your little snowman.
Kim, how so lucky to win that cute little quilt.
ReplyDeleteYour wool's a mess? Did you ever wonder why they call those little strips of wool worm? They seem to crawl and get all tangled up in a mess every time.
You are a good organizer with your summer and winter cloths, I'm sure you can tackle your wool. My stash is growing so much that I'm running out of room and I don't hook enough to ever even make a dent in it. PS. I hope that you win the LOTTO. Hugs, JB
Congratulations sweet Kim - that little quilt truly does look like a sun-kissed gem....As for the mess - nope, not me - not going there - don't wanna even thing about it, own up to it, or confess.....(But someone PLEASSSEE help me!!!) ;o) Smiles & Messy Hugs ~ Robin
ReplyDeleteThe quilt is just beautiful and I'm sure you'll have the perfect spot for such a treasure!
ReplyDeleteI understand the wool mess even though I'm not a"hooker". I am an artist/crafted though and so have lots of those supplies that in the past had all over the house too. I didn't win the lotto but hubby and sons put some standard simple cabinets in our furnace room that I now love. It keeps m e organized and though it's not beautiful, it's cozy in there and I like that. Maybe you might find a spot to do something like too.
Cute little quilt and in a pumpkin color just right for the season!
ReplyDeleteYikes! We have that 'can't find it' problem too, and many times end up going out and buying a replacement, which we also lose! ha-ha!!! So you should probably go purchase some more wool if you can't find the colors you were looking for. Easy Fix!!!
Jacque's stitching is wonderful! So happy you have a piece of sunshine to help get you through the Winter days! :-) During the organizing process you will be inspired to hook many rugs! ... wait a minute... did that just sound like a fortune cookie??!?! :-)
ReplyDeleteI've been agonizing over the mess my closets are in. I threw out and donated alot of "stuff" this past week but I've only made a small dent. It's a start that I really need to finish. Congrats on that beautiful gift!
