Finished Punch Needle

By Amy

I came across this cute little hanging tin basket recently and couldn’t resist.   I thought it would be perfect for adding a punch needle project.   I decided to add this stacked sheep WOOL punch needle pattern,  but it was just slightly too big.   So, I shrunk the pattern down just a little bit until if […]

Fall Decorating

By Amy

I know it isn’t officially fall until later in the month, but to me after Labor Day is fall. So I have put away all of my flags and patriotic decorating items and gotten out some pumpkins and other fall things. (I leave the jack-o-lanterns put away until October.) I have also been working on […]

Refurbishing an Antique Dresser

By Amy

Restoring an antique dresser

 I have been slowly refurnishing our oldest child’s vacated bedroom.   Last fall, I was at an auction and they couldn’t get a bid on an antique dresser.   I hadn’t intended to purchase a dresser, but I just can’t pass up a bargain.   My husband would argue about the bargain part since he had to bring […]

Sewing Bird Finish & Tea Dyeing Curtains

By Amy

Punch needle sewing bird on a wooden clamp

Last night, I finished putting together this sewing bird clamp. I punched it using this robin punch needle pattern, changing the thread colors to match the quilting cotton I chose for the bird’s base. I also made the bird’s breast area slightly smaller than the robin’s. I mounted it on a handmade wooden clamp made […]

Rusting Metal & Dyeing

By Amy

Rusting Sleigh

I am working on a few different projects today. I have a few fat quarters of felted wool in the dye pot with some orange dye. I am also attempting to rust this metal sleigh ornament I found at the Dollar Tree. I sprayed it with vinegar last night and let it sit in a […]
