. . . a VERY yummy basket!
Wool dyeing continued today. The wool in the basket above is the result of two days' efforts; the photo below shows what was accomplished today.
Wool dyeing is a very tiring chore requiring frequent, short naps! Uh-oh, it looks like I woke up one of my assistants.
Yep, I still have THIS MUCH wool left on the Wild Child's former bed so I COULD keep going, but I think that's enough for today unless I muster up more enthusiasm tonight. I've just cleaned up the kitchen, so it's not very likely, but then again, it sure is FUN!

Sung to the tune, "Oh, I've got a lovely bunch of coconuts." :o)
Opps, you might not be old enough to remember the tune back in the day....
Just wondering if you find all the wool at op shops? Were the originally skirts and jackets?
Gorgeous wool! Whatcha gonna make w/it??? Your picnic quilt is beautiful ... is it the "Disappearing Nine Patch???" Several of my friends have been making one so it's high on my list of "wanna do's."
