Flowers are travelling.



I have just returned from posting off my first page. This was "Flowers" for Kath. The detail above is a piece I was free machine embroidering for the page. Fursther photos will follow as soon as I know the page has arrived safely.

  2. I'm not sure what you mean. The prints I made from the linocuts have been used as the base for the finished page. The whole thing is mounted on heavyweight vilene - the type used for pelmets.
    If you would like the original linocuts, please let me know Kath.

  5. Yes, sorry Mandy I did of course mean to ask if you used the PRINTS from the linocuts!!! Many thanks for the offer, but the linocuts looked so beautiful and intricate you must of course keep them to use again. I'm sure they'll inspire me to do similar.

  6. Oh yes, do have a go with the lino prints. It is great fun. Just be very careful with the cutting blades they are really sharp!
