Three New Wool Projects

I'm starting three new wool projects in 2025!  The first one, above, is an advent calendar from Midway Wool with these cute little stockings.  I'm actually making two of these so that's technically four new wool projects!

I signed up for Birdie - Sue Spargo's "light" block of the month for 2025.  I received the first block and threads today!  I won't be able to share pictures of this for a while!



I'm also following West Coast Wool's Leaf the Week Behind project.  I received the kit for that this week and am trying to get the background and tree all tacked down, then every week she'll post a different embellished leaf on Instagram and in her newsletter.  I think tomorrow is leaf #3 so I need to get caught up!


I normally pin baste my wool pieces but the tree trunk and branches just wanted to go every which way, so I thread basted it.  Hopefully that will make the whip stitching a little easier!

I was so excited to have time in my sewing room yesterday and today!  Woohoo!


I cut a bunch of leaves for the tree also.  Look how stained my pressing boards are! Oh well, they're well used and well loved.... ❤️

Happy Quilting!! 🥰
