My friend Clare visited a Rug Event in York last Saturday. She bought the above spoon for me. The rovings and yarn have been dyed by Clare. She is an expert on dyeing!
The wooden spoon has pyrography designed by Lewis Creed - both he and his wife Louisa are rug hookers.
The cat picture shows a small detail of a rug designed and made by Louisa Creed. I so admire her work.
Happy Hooking - Jill
Lovely colours - what a talented lady, Clare is! Being very lazy, I have great admiration for people who take the time and trouble to dye their own fabrics and threads!
ReplyDeleteLove Louisa'a cat card - I thought the style looked familiar!
and....on the reverse of the spoon handle it reads....'please send chocolate'!
DeleteThank you Ruth - wish my talents extended to design!! Like you, I love Louisa's cats - there were a lot of them at the rug exhibition.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes please, Jill, I am still waiting for the chocolate.
