STRAWBERRIES ON WOOL

This is too fun.  I've tried punching on wool before but didn't have the gauge on the needle just right and my stitches were skimpy.  Jeanie from Ye Olde School House  sold me some fusible interfacing.  I drew my berries on the fabric, ironed the fabric to the wool. and stretched it on the frame.  The frame with gripper strips(300 prongs per inch) hold the wool in place.  So far so good.  I hope to have this pillow done for my booth at Cedarburg's Strawberry Fest this weekend.  Mary Harman May, wonderful basket maker from Milwaukee and I are sharing a space.  Keep on punchin.
