I started this piece demonstrating it at the Show and Sell of the Handweavers of Bucks County

and after I just continued until there was more space to hook. It is interesting because you can

see different figures in it. It was fun to make, I dont know yet if it going to stay that way or I

will convert it in a pillow, time will say!

This was also commissioned by a friend. It was fun to make the horse, the first time, and it looks like the one that the lady who owns the farm , has. Sometimes we are connected in some way. It was fun to do this piece, and hope that the lady likes it!

This work just appeared by itself. It happens a lot to me. A just sit and start to felt, and it comes out by itself. So these are mountains where the fog is low, and you can see only the top. It was fun how it came together. Hope somebody likes it!

It is always fun to make a Lucia, specially because today it is Santa Lucia, where the young girls dress in white with a red ribbon and candles on her hair. It is the beginning of the Christmas Holidays for the Swedes. My family get around and celebrate it with lusekattor, a saffran bread, and we drink hot glogg . Love to make Christmas decorations!

These trivets were a commission from a friend. It was fun to make both, different from each other.

They are good as decoration on the table and also to put hot platters on. It was fun!
