Angel finished

I finished my angel finally. I have named her Noel. I used silk for her underskirt and the bodice and silk organza with mirror work and embroidary for her over skirt. I then beaded her with pearls. The lace is handmade lace which I got from India and then I beaded that. For the wings I used the super dooper stabilizer that sticks to fabric. No basting or ironing on required for this and then it washes off. It is cool stuff especially for embriodary. I did some machine embroidary on the wings and beaded it with pearls. I didn't put any embellisments on her hair even though I did make provisions to put it there. I thought it might go over the top a bit. However I might see if crystal beads will look ok or not at a later date. Thank you so much Jacque for this wonderful class

Her face is done

I managed to finish her face today. It was not easy to paint on clay. I kept over doing her eyes in the end I had to stop myself otherwise I might have spoilt it.

Fingers in different pies

Since I have my fingers in different pies I thought I might as well have another pie going LOL! So I decided to take Jacque's class. This is a lovely tree top angel called Ashley Rose . Here is mine sitting in a corner drying. I hope she doesn't take too long. I think I will put her in the oven
to speed up the process.
