New Approach - Design Boards

I decided to do something very different to promote my classes for the new year - design boards! It did draw a lot of interest in the shop so I guess it did what I wanted it to. I will do this again!
I used some Tim Holtz products as well as actual weaving and cards. It took quite a while to find the black photo corners! I knew they were in here SOMEwhere.
I used plastic packaging to make a re-usable banner area. I just have to open the little door and change the text page. Easy!
When it's not in the shop - it can hang on the wall or sit on a shelf as artwork! Fun.

Jewel Shrug



This is my island countertop with a 7-yarn Tunisian Shrug in progress. Those lovely see-thru containers are from blank DVD towers. I was 1 short, therefore the can.

I arrange them so that the 4 yarns on the left at the moment are in the left quadrant and the 3 yarns on the right are on the right. I shift and re-arrange the containers as I work. This keeps me relatively tangle-free!

Teaching Class - Tunisian Crochet



I will be teaching a class this Saturday at Hill Country Weavers - a beginner's class in Tunisian Crochet. This Shrug is one of the pattern options in class. The other is a scarf. The Shrug pattern will be available to the public after the class is over.

Very exciting to be teaching again!
