"Lakeside Buoys" copyright Michelle L. Palmer

17'' x 24'' wool hooked rug on primitive linen

We have a blanket of white this morning with gentle snow falling.

My heart is lakeside... longing for warmth & sunshine.

Ready to dip toes in the water~

These buoys were licensed for notecards and dinner napkins

years ago. A fishing camp I visited nearly 30 years ago.

I couldn't stop photographing buoys!

Wishing I had taken more photographs of the handsome

cabins and boathouses.

I dyed the background wool: ProChem straw with mouse grey and

a touch of periwinkle. Some of the darker areas worked nicely

for the rope shadows. Hooked with #6 and #7 cut wool strips.

Hope you're all staying strong and healthy!

Thank you for stopping by~
