At the burn pile with opera


Yard clean up

Art burning brush


How many of you listen to opera while burning brush? You don’t? well I don’t, necessarily either, but my husband does. He is in absolute heaven! His favorite things are gardening, books and opera on Saturday afternoon.

Hmmmm. Did I know this when I married him those many years ago? No, but did he know that I would have a wool collection that rivals any good rug hooking establishment, multiple hooking frames, patterns, bolts of linen on the dining room table, rulers, scissors, sharpies and endless wool worms? No, he didn’t either.

Good thing we can look the other way at times- or sometimes even join in with the others interests. I love a good fire and actually like gardening when their aren’t any black flies and read books (not the same ones that he does). He, on occasion,  will give me some feedback on designs, colors and helps with figuring out the “math” part of things.

It’s a good partnership. Thanks for the differences in each other and for the things we share in common. It’s what makes our life interesting and fresh.

What were you up to today? I’m presently baking beans as a trial for our son’s upcoming wedding .

I hand dye all of my wool in small batches in my Maine home kitchen. Each color is unique to my process. All hand dyes are different for different makers. The pots used, the water, the dyes and combination of dyes make for unique colors for each individual hand dyer.

 

"Wonderfully hand dyed colors. So pretty I almost don’t want to cut into them…but just sit and sigh at the softness of the wool and beautiful muted tones…. Fast Shipping and a very pleasant transaction!"
