Lace Dress form Card

,

Wednesday the 4th was Card Making @The Gallery

with Kim.

We were all feeling a little groggy to get started back

to class but look at what I created!

Kim showed us lots of ways of folding cards,

using different sizes.

Kim also brought in lots of inspirational papers,

I chose the lace ones!

It was good to be card making again,

Thank you Kim!

Alpaca Waistcoat

There are so many different types of medias being undertaken

@The Gallery it's wonderful.

Nikki is coming along to use the fabric she has had spun

from her Alpaca Herd. The fabric is lovely to touch and to work with.

She is making a waistcoat, very suit like in it's construction

and look. After a few funnies the other week,

we got out the sewing dummy and are fitting it!
