A few days ago, I posted this as a photo… This is my pastel version! Yes, the moon is so much bigger, but that’s the way the eyes see it, while the camera doesn’t capture it the same way. Oh, I’d give this a B- grade, but this is all learning… And these red…
Wool Scarf, Step Two
In the past, I’ve seen gorgeous “landscape” scarves on the internet. The scarves are wet felted from roving, then needle felted with details. Ever since I saw the first one… I’ve wanted to make one! Isn’t it perfectly delicious? Finally, I did. Part One of this journey begins HERE. I’ve laid out my roving until…
Reposted for Elsa
I know I said I’d post pics of my scarf tonight… but I always glance through my older posts (links are found on the right sidebar)… and, honestly, I think this is one of my best posts EVER… So I’m reposting. Sometimes, the best words come only once… Missin’ you, Else… *Originally posted February 17,…
Trade
Well, that’s just dandy. When my computer gets shut down with a power surge or outage (which I didn’t notice anywhere else), it makes the grand decision to rebuild my photo library. My photo library has so many pics in it… well, it’s embarrassing. But know this… it takes TIME. And tonight was one of…
Reward
Mother Nature had to remind us again that it is FEBRUARY. Three inches of fresh snow this morning… nice, wet, springtime-like snow… perfect for snowballs! I may or may not have thrown some… At least the 50˚ weather this past week melted pretty much ALL of the old snow, so there’s no ice underneath. Brandon…
Bats and Owls and Starlight
For the past few weeks, our neighbor has been drilling a water well. It quickly became apparent we weren’t used to strange lights in our neighborhood at night! You could top the hill up the road a mile or two, and wonder at the glowing reflection on the red cliffs and hills. I mean, this…
Wool Scarf
Tomorrow the Ten Sleep Library will be hosting Billie Jo Norsworthy from Lucy’s Sheep Camp. She’s coming over from Thermopolis just to give some lucky people a class on wool needle felting! Of course, someone has to be there to supervise the library… 😉 If you’ve been following me for a while, you’ve seen me…
Calf Warmer
Still hung around close to the house today… working on some wool projects and cleaning… After lunch, though, I said I’d feed my bees and head down to where the guys were installing the calf warmer. After some research, I decided NOT to give the bees any corn syrup, as liquids need to be dried…
Happy Girls
Bummer. Everyone has had a cold around here, after the nasty crud in December, and the flu over Christmas… and I thought, knock on wood, that it might just pass me by. Nope. I got it. It’s been a horrid cold and flu season around here, hitting people in this community very hard. Actually, I…
