After all my obsessing about the green wool, it was so worth it. I have drooled looked at the Tombstone Angel on Pinterest for the longest time. When I finally began pulling wools for the rug, the green wool was no where to be found. I searched high and low and no green wool. Franklin has a new shop called Bittersweet Primitives and they carry a selection of wools for hooked rugs. The owner of the shop is a (rug) hooker and is planning to offer classes. There was a nice selection of green wools and I purchased several for the tombstone angel. Of course, Murphy's Law is alive and well and when I returned home with my purchase, I found the stash of green wool.
Am so happy I obsessed about the green wool because the finished product is so worth it. The background green wool reminds me of the lichens growing on old tombstones.
Tombstone Angel--she will be so fun to decorate with during Halloween.
