Hooking a Sky that is not Blue & Hooking with Wool Cloth

Hooking a Sky that is not Blue & Hooking with Wool Cloth 0

We often hook rugs with blue skies . Sometimes to change it up I like to hook a rug with another colour in the sky. In this video I use a mottled dyed cloth to hook the sky.

I came into my yard after my morning walk and I saw the branches in their baskets from Christmas looking so forlorn. It was not til the last couple of days that they were thawed enough to pull apart. I carried them to the fire pit. It is way past time. At Christmas these baskets were a welcome home. Right now they are a reminder that I am out of step with the present. Today my doorstep is free and clear of any encumbrances. It is no longer a reminder of things that need to be done. It feels good. I am a list maker but that doorstep never made it to the list. When I put things on my list, they get done. I love the thrill of the mark off...putting a line through it. Done. One woman told me that sometimes she writes down things she has already done on her list just so she can get the immediate satisfaction of striking it off. I smiled. I understood.
