Illuminated Initial


This is what I have been working on for the last few days. Very heavily textured using stretchy felt, nappy liner, vliesofix, shiva stick and more, then burnt back with the heat gun. Great fun. Initial sorked seperatly and then put on. You cant really see any beading but there is a bit. I am making more bases it was such fun.
Yesterday we moved the pony out to the herd of mares, put the net over the quince tree so that the parrots cant eat them all. I want quince paste!
We also went to a party to farewell our current local parliamentarian, elections in 2 weeks and he isnt going on. He has been the best one we have ever had in this district and we will miss him. He and his family became good friends as John became Mayor at about the same time Dean came in. I am glad John is no longer Mayor, the pressure these days is so great. 10 years was long enough for us.
