Elle, you must be very proud of your work. It is beautiful. Did you make it for anyone special?

K9, No didn´t make for anyone special this time, think its going to end up in the top bedroom (we have 3 floors).

Moonpi, Funny I didn´t notice the art noveau look of it till you mentioned it. Well spotted.

Gcathie, it wasn´t hard to cut out, there were excellent patterns in this book it was cut out and placed on the material over a weekend. But getting round to doing the rest seemed to take forever.

Thank you evryone for your lovely comments they are so much appreciated. :D :D Elle
