I am frantically getting projects made and things ready for the Sandown Show - see sidebar. Have only 9 days left to get organised.
I am concentrating on an Easter and Spring theme and to this end I have just finished a parchment Easter card using a Gilly Howe pattern. I love Gilly's patterns and have done a few. The 'egg' itself was quite easy but as they say the devil is in the details. I found it quite difficult - believe it or not - to get the parchment rainbow liner to fit perfectly. I am pleased with it though.
Do you remember all those miniature handbags I made? I have decided to use the open basket style ones and fill them with miniature chocolate eggs. I hadn't got quite enough of that style so I have been busy making some more. I then discovered that if I fill them with the eggs they are going to be too heavy to hang from my Fotofall thingie so off to Amazon I went and purchased a more substantial necklace tree. Well a girl can never have too many of those and it will always be useful for future shows - if not I will have to buy more necklaces.
I am now planning some parchment butterflies and spring type flowers.
This is gorgeous Carol I love the rainbow effect still very new to all this myself
