    It's beautifully and carefully crafted Dips. A great combination of soft pastel shades,

      Nice work, @Dips :thumbsup: The colours are very Spring-like and I can just imagine you sat in garden with it over your legs enjoying Spring sunshine. Will you make one in Autumnal colours?

            Very pretty Dips, but it would seem it's a one off from what you say. :)

                  Excellent badger, Jenny :)

                  Mrs Shiney gave a talk on flower arranging the other day and how to make handbags for special occasions.

                  She also did this to show how you can get different effects by bending leaves etc.
