Hooked Wool Strawberry
As pictured on page 81 in the August 2008 issue of Early American Life magazine. Approximately 9-1/4 inches tall. This is an original design of mine that incorporates both the traditional craft of rug hooking and 19th century make-do pincushions. The strawberry is hooked onto burlap, using wool that I dye by hand. The wool for the leaves is also hand dyed and is cut using a pinking machine. The hooked strawberry sections are sewn together by hand. The pincushion is filled with organic cotton stuffing and mounted on a glass candlestick. Candlesticks may vary slightly in appearance and height from the one pictured. I do not sell a pattern for this strawberry - it is only available as a finished pincushion. $89 on candlestick base or $87 without base.
