Day 1 of the WoW christmas fibre advent. Today’s fibre is a flax mohair blend.

Complete cornflower blackwork. This represents approximately 50ish hours of work.

Stitching up a quick little project – a tiny chickadee gardener bird!

A friend had been wanting a set of my paws for a while but didn’t want to ask because they knew how much work/$$ goes into them. So I decided that would be their Christmas present this year & got them to pick out fabrics from my stash. They’re gonna look sooo cute!

I patterned & made up a little cover to protect my new wool hand carders. It came out so well that I’m considering making a few to sell.

I did something crazy & bought an advent calendar this year … a wool/fibre advent calendar! I’m going to try do a post every day of December this year as I open up each packet of this World Of Wool advent calendar box. This is gonna be fun!
