Fan - free download pattern from Amanda Yeh

I had a few moments of  Will I? - Won't I? show this as I marked the work after I had finished.  I caught the parchment with one of my tools and of course the sad thing is that you cannot remove a mark from parchment.
You can hide it by covering it - what we call a butterfly moment - but on here it would look so silly.  I could have made one new blade  - as a friend suggested - but it was all finished and glued. So here it is - warts and all.
The pattern is available from Amanda's site

Blossom Fan - pattern by Amanda Yeh

This wonderful pattern from Amanda Yeh's book - 'Exqisite Bags in Parchment Craft' is not for the faint hearted.  But like all Amanda's patterns,  it is grid work through and through which is my favourite part of parchment work.  It was a question of now I have started I will finish and I was up til 2.am. this morning because I just couldn't leave it.  This second book of Amanda's is challenging to say the least but I think the result is worth it.  I have mounted it on 10 x 8 ready to be framed.

Here is a close up of the ribs and bow


  I hope you like it.

(sorry Debs - I'll try and get back to some more flowers xx).
