getting back in the groove

After arriving home on Tuesday I have been working hard to get things back in the groove.  I got in lots of wool while I was gone so getting it washed, dried, folded and tagged for the hook-in and my booth in Greenwood has kept me busy.  I am anxious to get back in the dye pots at least one day before the hook-in but I did do some dyeing back in December knowing that I wasn't going to have much time.  Here are some pictures from Greenwood that I took after filling in yesterday. I also got my hair cut and colored---wow----did it need it---it had been almost 8 weeks!









Last night we had friends over for fried oysters---yum!  I am going to miss all the fresh seafood that we were able to get in Rockport.

I am looking forward to the Lenexa hook-in---if you are reading my blog stop by my booth and say "hi".  

I have worked on my rug a little bit a couple of evenings.  I have it right out in my living room where I can pick it up even if I only have a little bit of time.  I would love to have it finished for the Hook-in but not sure that will happen...we'll see.  I plan to watch the KU basketball game today so that will get me some hooking time.



This morning i am going to work on patterns...as soon as I finish my coffee and the dishes...so have a great day!

  2. Geesh Anita!
    Your wool stash is staggering!! I wish I lived closer to you...I'd be at that booth every week. Glad you're settling in, back at home. Your runner is acting as inspiration to me as I learn to color plan. Did you design the pattern?
    Cheers!
