This is tapestry wool. I've inherited it from the same place as all the knitting wool mentioned earlier in my blog. Today we sorted it into colours, as it was all in separate little bags and I wanted to see exactly what I had. There is a huge amount of greens, and a lot of blues, and very little red (my favourite colour). I have a body of work planned for this lot and am quite excited about it. More will be revealed as it occurs, perhaps not for a month or so. It fits in perfectly with my thoughts that I should be an artist who deals entirely with materials that have already been pre-loved but not used - rescued materials. I like that idea. =)

Goodness, Margaret, you'll need a new craft room! Or maybe one room for working and one room for storage! I love the idea of "pre-loved, never used", my friend uses that term at her new/pre-loved baby-goods store when she has 2nd hand items still in the packaging. There are no "used" items, just "pre-loved". You are a crafter extraordinaire with an amazing vision/imagination! Sue xx
