Another sunset! I love the colors of the sunsets at this time of the year, the colors are really bold, so my stash permits me to make them! I will continue felting them!

I saw a picture of the sunset at the bridge and tough that it would be great to make it in roving. The colors are almost surreal, but I like the effect of the almost pink sun coming down!

Love to make seashores! This red headed girl is watching the sunset . I would very much like to do the same! It is so rewarding to work with wool roving, and the colors that I have are great!

This is an oldie that came back home. I am so happy to have it again. It was designed by my daughter Anne-Marie, and it was wonderful to hook. Love the result!

This piece was really fun to make. I worked a little to get the image that I wanted, and the colors made the miracle. It is so good to have tons of wool roving to play with!

This is a piece that has been “sleeping” for a while. I decided to finish it. The wiping is the thing I am not so keen in, but I did it! The result is beautiful, I love it! It is Anne-Marie, my daughters design, she is so good! Tropical, definitely!

Rug hooking – pointillism
Hand dyed yarn and hand dyed cheese cloth
4″ x 4″
Mounted on a canvas
This was my first experience to hook with yarn, and achieved some of the Pointillism. It is a quite different experience to hook with yarn than with wool fabric. The effect is completely different! I liked it! The only place that I used another material was on the sun, I though the effect of the cheese cloth is good! Thanks you Karen Miller for teaching me this!

This piece was made after a watercolor my father, Tom Nalsen, made in 1932. It was so much fun to make it, it came out with brighter colors but I like it! It is part of my heritage!
