As I mentioned yesterday, I attended a two day workshop hosted by Ali Strebel and Maria Barton. We were given this . . .
. . . and shown some examples that they created from these simple designs. (Somehow I did not get pictures of all the samples.) The rest was up to us to plan what we wanted to create ~ with lots of help and encouragement from the two of them ~ and others in the workshop.
A wallhanging . . .
Look at the sweet felted cardinal in Mr. Snowman's pocket.
. . . purse
. . . pillow
. . . mat with tongues
. . . mat with a braided edge
. . . a woolly hooking bag
Some examples of Maria's work . . .
I've had this Santa pattern for months and haven't even started it. Maybe I'll get it done for next Christmas . . . sigh.
. . . and Ali's.
Isn't this turkey FUN?
In my next post I will share what the hookers were working on.
If you haven't already done so, PLEASE get out and vote tomorrow!
Pug hugs :)

What a great class! Ilove those rugs.
I will be voting and because we are a tiny little town we use paper ballots and I will be counting ballots.

It looks like this was a great workshop and It nice to see what you girls came up with.
One more sleep and you will know the outcome of this election.
Thanks for sharing these beautiful pictures with us.
I hope that your weather is nice tomorrow for voting.

I would have loved to be there, such wonderful pieces and a wonderful class to be creative and use different mediums in one piece.
