Labor Day:

It went from blazing hot to fall in a matter of hours around here. Don't you just love sweater weather?

A new Raku bead listed on the website

"Horizontal Purple Raku"

The photo on the top is of my latest rug hooking, this one made into a framed piece. The image is an adaptation of an original watercolor that our friend Michael Weber made. The frame Joe made out of some old weathered boards we gathered many years ago. They were part of an old shed...or as the neighbors say, out of an old circus wagon that was on our friend and neighbors land. Not sure if that story is correct about the circus wagon, but it does make it a colorfull story!

Hooking was made entirely of recycled wood (thrift shop clothes of 100% wood) and now the frame is even recycled. Now that is re-use and re-propose!
