First Finish, 2011...

My first finish of 2011, has been a WIP (work in progress). It was a wool kit, project that Lynn (my Idaho, friend and hand project expert) had gifted to me a couple of years ago. It sat in the packaging the first year out of shear intimidation, as I had never worked with wool. Then last winter I was able to spend a few days out in Idaho.  That is when Lynn got me started on a smaller project, which I quickly finished.  Feeling more confident, I went home and started in on the cardinals and a year later...here they are!  Thanks Lynn, I love working with the wool and definitely see wool in my future.  I like having something to work on when SO are watching TV.

This weekend was great!!! SO, treated me to my "Christmas present."  More on this later...
