Silvia Squirrel


I liked those vinyl bags so much for my embroidery projects that I bought a set for my rug hooking WIPs. 



They are big enough for the canvas, the pattern and the wool. It's nice having everything in one place.



 I packed up Rainbow Kitty until next summer and went looking for something fallish. I am not ready to pull out the pumpkin for Halloween yet but I wanted to use some of my pretty fall wool so I went looking through the stash and found.....



 .....Silvia Squirrel. I don't remember when I bought her but I am glad I did.



 I had a happy afternoon making her strips.



 Hello Silvia! I'll work on her until we get into to October. Then it will be time to show Mr. Pumpkin some love. It would be nice to think I could finish him this year but I doubt it.



That's a lot of background to hook.

  1. Oh I love Silvia Squirrel and that reminds me that somewhere I have a cross stitch pattern with a squirrel and acorns and leaves.....

  2. Sylvia is really cute. :-) I like those bags too as I tend to mostly use ziplock bags and they get holes easily.

  4. I think those vinyl bags are a wonderful idea! Too many projects can easily get forgotten about so I think I'll have to take a look for them myself! Love the colors in your rug hooking projects!

  11. Apparently I'm way behind on blog post reading. Love the pumpkin and Silvia, except now I have that song, Silvia's Mother, stuck in my head. Thanks for that. :)
