A break from sewing this weekend  

I'm in a group online with about 40 or so other crafty hand maidens, one lady had suggested we all take a little break this weekend from our usual crafts and do something just for us ~ challenge accepted!

I've had a canvas on my easel for about 1-2 yrs!! yes I know ridiculous isn't it? But you know how life goes..

Anyway I was determined to get to it. I'd seen some absolutely beautiful paintings on Rachel Ashwells Shabby Chic website of abstract like ballerina dresses and  I thought that would be gorgeous in a girls room.
Here are some progress shots of my own version...

And it certainly was great to have a little break from doll making for a few days.

Hopefully next time I won't leave it so long between paintings, I might need to do something for the boys rooms next  :)

Have a lovely day xx
