2011-07-04 Geraldine Leighton Alan's stole

Geraldine came to our work shop in Audlem, but instead of doing one of our usual pieces she decided to do something for her son in laws stole. She has kindly emailed in her finished piece.
She commented "I thought you might like to see the finished project that I practised at the workshop in Audlem. I finished it in time to give to my son-in-law before he went to Liverpool and he wore it when he was ordained yesterday. Many thanks for your help and I hope to continue doing some goldwork as I find it very satisfying to do."

Goldwork leather

Ann H - Goldwork Gekco

At our Frodsham Lacemakers class. Ann was asking our advice about what to do on her Gekco, she chose to use the holographic leather on the middle of the body, I think it looks really effective. It almost takes on a hue of the background fabric. Hasn't she made a good job of it.

Ann commented
"You asked at the course, which I thoroughly enjoyed by the way, if we would send you photos of any finished projects, so I am attempting to send you a photo of my seahorse and my gecko. I am delighted with them both"

Pam G

***Golden Wedding Gift***
Well Pamela P, I must say this is a great piece of work and I was really impressed, I particularly like your use of the green leather, who says it has to be used on the right side, the suede effect really lifts those leaves.

Eilidh Seahorse

Seahorse
This wonderful seahorse produced by Eilidh R.
Her email comments were "I came to your stall in Harrogate and bought the seahorse for starters. I enjoyed doing in it and the instructions were easy to follow. Also, thank you for your help when i rang up. I think I will buy another kit!"
It's always good to get feedback from a happy customer.
