Happy Easter! Fill your basket with wools in shades of spring!





Dyeing Easter eggs will always be enchanting to my playfully creative mind. To have the chance but once a year to experiment with every color in the rainbow, changing a fresh egg canvas in to a unique work of art. At our house we cherish the annual opportunity to come up with a new way of dyeing eggs. From dipping into the fizzy store-bought dye tablet solution to creating our own vegetable dye recipes we love the idea of watching each fresh egg take on a new life all it's own.

Imagine how happy I was to discover a similar joy in dyeing wool! I attended Marianne Michael's wool dying workshop and rediscovered that excitement through a medium much longer lasting in it's use. There is a certain intrigue in watching an already beautiful textile evolve into something vibrant and new. When Marianne hand-dyes and felts wool for our shop, she begins by selecting 100% wool yardage steeped in the classic wool-making tradition. She then uses Cushing's Acid Dyes in large white enamel pots to dye 1/2 - 1 yard of wool at a time. Every piece that emerges from those pots is unique. Some are saturated and bold; others soft and earthy. She works hard to achieve a variety of visual texture by making some colors smooth and others mottled, spanning the entire spectrum. The result is a pallette ready for you to draw from here at the shop for nearly any wool project you have in mind. It's an endless creative process that truly feeds the soul.

Stop in and let us show you the wooly possibilities! We carry wool by the yard and Cushing's dyes so you can experiment with your own creations. Watch for Marianne's wool dying workshop this June for a learning opportunity you'll never forget. Pick up some hand-dyed wool by the bundle, ounce, or scrap and whip up a fun Easter weekend project like this cute Bare Roots embroidery design or
these stunning wool applique eggs by Ewe-niversity.  Whatever you do this weekend to celebrate new life and nurture your creative side, we hope you have a Happy Easter!

New to our wool department; the Welcome Home collection by Buttermilk Basin! We are loving this versatile, year-long project. "Home" spelled out in classic black wool, has an "O" that can be changed monthly. Each "O" is small enough to take with you and stitch anywhere, all year long! See below for an example of the interchanging "O" for July. Marianne has put together kits and has more samples here for you to see!



For a quick and easy children's quilt or beginner's project, give our Snappy Fox quilt a try! Playful patterns and colors highlight a friendly fox. Jen Tanner loved that funny little fox so much that she gave him a special spotlight in wool! Our kits include him already cut out and ready to whip stitch on if you choose. Emily Herrick took inspiration from prints in the quilt for some custom machine quilting that is just right for this whimsical design.
