Pocket Hank’in

i've been meaning to do this for weeks. I have some fine linen and I have some silk thread that I got for cheap at the closing Joanne fabrics. I learned to use my old machine in a new way with different stitches, edging stitches.

The Matriarch and Patriarchs

i've been working on the matriarchs and patriarchs for months. I finally completed Jacob.

Apron/curtain Project

I got my mojo back -all of a sudden I had ambition to do things. I've had some material kicking around for over a year, and I made some aprons and curtains. I used my own imagination to design the curtains and they're not as nice as I would've liked, but they work and the apron-I found an old apron I bought years ago and copy the style from it.

Tunic knitting project

I'm working on an eco duo project- that is the name of the wool. it has not been died. It is all natural colors. The wool is 30 % merino and 70% alpaca and is buttery soft.

Painting of Castle Huntly

I found out in 2023 that I am actually not of the Brandlin bloodline. I am of the Pugh bloodline. Then I found out that a few generations back there aren't many Pughs.(my newly found cousin told me).. The bloodline is Patterson. Which means Patrick's son in Scottish. It is a Scottish name and I have 3% Scott blood in me. I looked up the Pattersons and I found there is a lot in history about them and one Patterson acquired castle Huntley in 1776 for his wife who was a Grey because the origin of the castle was Grey. I looked online and found this castle that is now a Scottish prison that was once owned by a Patterson in 1776.
