Only three left to do.  I have now bought a clasp for the bracelet, which I think goes rather nicely - watch this space for when I eventually get around to putting it on!

Inchies and a twinchie we made a Embroiderers Guild last month

I saw some of these made from fabric at last years Georgia Quilt show - and now the mystery is solved.  This one is made from paper and about 5 inches across.

Surprise!

I made this ATC to thank the maker of the tag I received a couple of weeks ago.

The theme this month for the Craft Stamper swap is Gothic Arches, this was a practice.  I have inked the background with Distress Inks and then stamped the tree.  I stamped two owls on shrink plastic, coloured them with pencils and cut them out.  I stuck them on the card with Diamond Glaze.

City and Guilds Patchwork and Quilting FORM MODULE

I am really enjoying this module - and I have almost completed it. Here is the resolved piece. We had to make a 3-D scene based on a landscape view. I chose the view from the end of my street - the viaduct (was a train line - now a cycle track- or it will be when they reopen it).This is the 3D scene that I made from painted card and acetate. It fits in a C6 envelope.
This is the view from the top showing the zigzag sides and the layers mounted on the folds so that it folds out to be a 3D scene and then folds flat for storage inside the envelope.
