I went to a paint pouring workshop last week, the pictures have only just finished drying.  Here are the best two, the 3rd one was a disaster as I used light colours which just merged into a blob, then tried using a darker colour, which just made it look like something had been spilt on it!  2 out of 3 isn't too bad I suppose.

I like the bottom one more than the top one.

Yes I prefer that one too, not sure where to put the heart one, it's quite big!

That looks like fun, Madeleine and very effective 😊

It is though you're never sure how it's going to turn out, very messy as well and it takes ages to dry.

As the weather was nice I decided to have another go at paint pouring, outside this time, and did these two:

What does lucetted mean?  Did you make the whole thing?

The hanging cord was made with a lucet. It’s a tool for making cords: this is what mine looks like

The rest I sewed myself from a kit that I got for my birthday

Fantastic, looks complicated!

Thank you. It’s actually very easy. Instructions come in the kit and all the stitches are straight up and down. I can just about count to four (you count how many boxes in the canvas a stitch uses, printed on a diagram) which is how I got there.

Currently into mosaicking, here's a sunflower I did today - the pointed petals were a bit difficult to cover exactly,so the grouting is a little uneven - and a coaster I did the other week.  But at least the tiles are all pre cut.

Lovely, @Madeleine

These are a few of the Tom Clark Gnomes that I collect. Tom Clark was a sculptor, among other professions, that was well respected in the U.S. 

First photo is named N.O. Evels See if you can figure out why.

Second photo is named Saturday.

Fourth photo is named 7-UP and is much more "shiny" than you see as I haven't dusted it for ages. 😀
