Well i shall start of my posting again by mentioning (yes again) my favorite wool supplier. Most particularly because of the strong Aussie dollar at the moment it is a great time to buy!
I want to get some more of the sale 3 tone wool thread that is on super sale at Renaissance dyeing.
I have a set but i will much more likely use it if i have a bit more in the works
I want to finish of my wool embroidery i started a few months back and possible stitch a new blog header!!!
I used the book below for some of the patterns.
Beginner's Guide to Crewel Embroidery
It's not very comprehensive, but it has some great little patterns and a totally cute squirrel and hedgehog. I am considering stitching him. :-)
Here is the embroidery piece 1/2 finished: I just need to find something to do with it.
I also want to finish the camera case project that has been on the go while i have been away studying.
anyway this is the current plans and i shall be updating more frequently not. Hopefully with this darn camera case finished.

Thanks nic,
I think we just blog comment swapped. I was typing to you and you were typing to mine :-)
A cushion? Crewel work in wool is very hard wearing. I've got a cushion in Bargello in wool that I made when I was 16 that is still fine, and much used and loved.
3 shades of madder! *dribble*
Your piece is looking wonderful! I especially love the tan-greenish leaf on the left - just perfect! So smooth!
