Outside My Comfort Zone ~ Day 1

IMHO, Ali Strebel is the queen of hooking with alternative fibers using many different techniques.  She never just hooks a rug with pulled loops like I do.  Here she is demonstrating needle felting dots on top of an area that is hooked.

With Ali's guidance and encouragement, I am determined to try different things in my little mat.  The top rim of my basket has been appliqued.  The stem is a technique called caterpillar shirring and the berries are fabric bundle shirring.  Whew!  She is challenging me!

Thanks so much for stopping by.
Pug hugs 😊
