Faux Metal hanging
Hello again folks. Well what a great few days I have had. Jennie arrived on Monday evening, and after a leisurely meal and a glass of wine, we adjourned to the craft room and talked about crafting and knitting and singing which are all the things we have in common. The faux metal hanging was made for Jennie's visit and she loved it, so now I can share it with you. Jennie also gave me a gift of the most beautiful 1 ply cobweb lace wool spun in Shetland, and the pattern book as well. Wasn't I the lucky one. On Tuesday Annie had a Crafty day and we had such a lot of fun and made some of Jennies stunning flowers. After lunch I showed Jennie how to emboss with Toilet tissue, so amid howls of laughter I did my demonstration and it was one that she hadn't done, so she enjoyed that too. Then Annie did the Faux leather technique and then it was coffee and cake. More crafting, and I left Annie and Jennie to enjoy their evening meal together as I had to leave to see to Andrew. A great day was had by all of us and we will definitely be doing it again in the near future. Jennie left for Shetland today and left us both with great memories. Safe Journey home Jennie.

We DID have an amazing time together! And yes the hanging is just so beautiful - it is up on the wall by my desk already! The faux metal background is amazing - it looks and feels just like metal. And the colours and embellishments are just some of my favourites too. Thank you Rita for such a wonderful piece which will be treasured.

Love your faux metal hanging Rita, I love this technique. The colours and embellishments are gorgeous but I especially love your flowers, are they made from a die or punch? they really add the finishing touch. Love it! Hugs Lottie x
