THIRD DAY OF CHRISTMAS GIFT IDEAS

On the third day of Christmas my true love gave to me.......


How about three wooly sheep.  I have two dear friends, Ellen Murphy of American Homestead and Dawn Cornell owner of The Quilt Shoppe in Anderson, Indiana who are wool enthusiasts.  They have infected me with "woolitis".  I have bought several patterns to start working on in the coming year.

I bought a wall quilt kit titled "Wooly Sheep" with the purpose of giving this quilt as a Christmas gift to a friend of mine that raises sheep. It has been fun making it.  I truly am loving this new craft for me. 

If you're not sure about it, start out with a small project.  There are kits like this one and as small as a Christmas ornament.  If you are interested in doing a project like this one, you can contact Ellen Murphy at ellen@americanhomesteaddesign.com.   She has two wool designs that are easy to make.  Also, if you are interested in purchasing the Wooly Sheep kit, here is the contact information:  Rachel's of Greenfield, 76 Greenfield Road, Lancaster, PA 17602, www.rachelsofgreenfield.com


Have fun!

  1. Irene, This is just lovely!! Is this your finished work of art?? I just may have to start this, but with something very small. I like the idea of an ornament! Lord's blessings to you all this wonderful Advent-tide :)
