I've been working on a design that has wool applique with long winding vines and remembered that Cathi at Shakerwood Woolens has these rolls of wool strips for sale that are going to be perfect. Instead of piecing, I can use her strips, which are 50" long and 2" wide for the vines, cutting them down as needed. Plus there are four strips in different shades of green, just what I've been looking for. Yay Cathi for a great idea.
That is a nice idea for vines, I am always having a problem find enough fabric to make them. I can't wait to see what you are making.

These look fabulous. I love the variety in shades of green. Nice long pieces too.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Nancy! They will be in tomorrow morning's mail.
ReplyDeleteThat is brilliant!
ReplyDeleteI don't work with wool, but this seems like a great idea, so logical and therefore so clever.
ReplyDeleteVery good idea!
