Winter Jan-March 2017

Hooked rug, started about five years ago, finally finished.

I broke my rug hook and got a Ruth Moshimer one, I also got the locker hook, thought I'd try that style of rug making next.

Jan MacKay made me this wonderful two sided stocking.  Yes, not apparent from the photos but they are two sides of the same stocking.

Deanna Hogan has a free simple snowman pattern with instructions.   Here's a picture from her site

Winter

Inspired by a Barbara Stuart pattern

Crocheted scissors case. I modified an Annie's Attic pattern.
I'm working on the Elinor Peace Bailey Victorian doll Finished! I bought the two patterns at Pieces Quilt Shop in Renton, Washington. The doll on the left is the Retro Angel, I left off the wings because I thought she was magical enough. On the right is a doll from the Miniature Victorian and Pierrot pattern.
4.75 x 3.5 inch book with pockets on some of the pages.

This pattern adapted from one on Celt's Vintage Crochet site Instead of DMC size 8, South Maid Size 10 and steel crochet hook 5 was used. This is a doll bought at Lot-Less, it is 7 inches high.

Beaded mah jong tile pendant Domino Pin I bought the box at a bazaar at the Van Cortlandt Senior Center, painted it, put the die cut on it. Put a final coat of clear acrylic on it.
