Pure Heaven

I have so far only hooked with recycled woolens from vintage garments. I really enjoy searching for these vintage skirts, cutting them up, and dyeing them. But yesterday, I received samples of woolens from Heavens to Betsy.




They are absolutely gorgeous. So gorgeous that I could not resist taking pictures of them.
The colors, textures, and patterns are amazing.




 I am dreaming of what I could do with them. I could use them just as they are... I could over-dye them...




They are so soft and fluffy, I am sure they would be a joy to hook with. It is going to be so hard to chose which ones to order! I like them all!

    I love Betsy's woolen fabrics. I'm with you...I want to order them all. Plus, they're just the nicest people to work with.

    Those samples look wonderful...I want my own set!!! Although, if I add any more wool to my stash, I may have to build an addition to the house!

      I know Linda. We have been looking at houses to move, and each time I visit a new house, I think, ok, where does my stash go? I think of that even before I consider whether the house has enough room for my growing children!
