Finally Finishing Hooking



I finally finished hooking my Big Hug Rug. It is not bound yet because I am not going to do that until I decide whether it will be going on a wall or the floor.


Built this snowman during our big storm last week.

Watching the Snow Fall

We are snowed in.
But this is okay. The snow is gorgeous.
The sun is out today though and this snow will be melting very soon.
I went out and built a snowman. That was so much fun!

My wool stripper is waiting for me at the post office. We should be able to get out of here in a few days. Maybe even tomorrow. It will be muddy though.

We do have an ATV and went over the mountain to see my mom & dad yesterday. And my sister and her husband. If we had chains for the truck we could get out of here. We are supposed to go over the my sisters for a smoked turkey this evening. We will see the mud may keep us in here.

It is kind of fun being snowed in!!!! The deer should be moving around today.

I have been procrastinating as far as creating goes. Look for a mermaid though. I have been playing with a mermaid design. Might even make it into a pattern. So do keep posted.

Back in Colorado



It is so good to be back in Colorado even if snow may be in the works. Last night a herd of about 30 deer came through. We have missed that. Saw many Antelope on the way back up here. We did have a window break on the RV on our way up here. So that will need to be repaired. My wool stripper broke so I will be sending that in for repairs today. So I am thinking that my Big Huge Rug will not be finished before we head toward Oregon. I am looking forward to the Bee Skep Tutorial which starts next week. I think we will have a lot of fun. Have a blessed day and an awesome Easter.

Thought I would share a couple of photos from last summer.
