I really want to get that book - cotton and ewe. It looked like it had some really great projects in it.

I too love wrking with wool & have quite a stash. I love resale shops too but I really like the dyed ones.
I am making a penny bed spread with prairie cloth(black) for nmy bed. I have a very primitive log home & all of the wool works so well.
I am trying something new with alpaca wool. I have 12 alpacas & we sheared them & I am having the wool made into batting. I can hardly wait to get it back.
I also have a pattern for wool slippers that i want to make for winter. When I get projects done I will post.
Love wool

Check out Sue Spargo's website and Primitive Gatherings....they have lots of wool, patterns, etc. Great sites.

WOW it must be great to have your own supply of wool. I keep trying to convince my parents that they could keep a couple alpacas on the back feild. So far no luck. Please post pics of some of the stuff you already made. I would love to see everyone elses projects.

I have several boxes of deconstructed wool clothing that I will be using in a future project(s). I just happened upon some great sales in a few thrift stores lately. They knew I was coming. Love your appliques, but do not have the patience to try that at this time.
