    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

    Love wool
    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.
