I like that you used yellow thread with the silver sequins to do the stippling behind the leaves. Very considered design.

I took my first intro class at Lesage 5 years ago and came home and practiced daily. Last year I did level I and this year I did level II and due to volcanic eruption did level III. What Bob is teaching.. vermichelli and layering at Lesage comes at higher levels. You are fortunate to learn from someone that 1. speaks english... <br />2. Is a good teacher... <br /> Lesage is great don't get me wrong but they can be not so nice!! Love to hate them but I would go back in a minute!!!<br />Shirlee FassellShirlee Fassellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03408506544726687105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24975998.post-53159806470708330182010-06-16T09:33:00.349-05:002010-06-16T09:33:00.349-05:00This looks like fun!
