New Patterns*** Click photos for close-ups *** Finally adding the new patterns!!!!!!!!!!!! take a look-see and maybe you'll find a pattern that you JUST can't wait to make!!! and these new patterns all include that great 2cd close-up photo that really proves that a picture is worth a thousand words!!!!!! ENJOY being OUT of the box but IN the BAG!!! These have all been embellished with little touches of RUG HOOKING. My new passion!!! i became a hooker almost 2 years ago, and stripping and dyeing quickly followed! i have fallen in love with all wools, vintage to brand spanking new from the mills. what a surprise to put it in a pot with a little dye, a little simmering, a rinse and then to the dryer.....and then the treat of pulling it out of the dryer, soo soft , sumptious and just simply yummy!!! if you're looking at these patterns but thinking "i do not hook yet, but i would like to make one of these dolls", well simply cut out the heart, pear, or stars from felted wool and primitively stitch them on!!! if you'd like more info on the how to's of rug hooking, send me an email and i will gladly give you bunches of links for some wonderful rug hooking sites! and one of these days my webmaster will have my links page added. also coming soon is the finished dolls for sale page!!!
