We have wings!
 |
| (Still working on how best to photograph them.) |
 |
| (Also, a second wall covered in cork boards...) |
 |
| ...which the wings, at about 82," exceed by about 4 inches ( - doh). |
 |
| I still have half a third wall to work with, and I predict that it also will quickly be put to use. |
 |
| work continues on the figure - almost there. |
 |
| I started at the head, and this week, I reached the boots. decided to attach the laces by just mimicking the way an actual boot is laced (when in doubt, build it like what it is ;) ). |
 |
| I just happened to be wearing the boots that were the models for the prints, haha. |
It's not as exciting to look at, but most of the work on this this week is only really visible on the back - I was glueing, ironing, sewing the parts together, then covering the seems by glueing and ironing a piece of thin but strong mulberry paper (I want to make extra, super, sure that the parts stay together even if one form of attachment fails).
 |
| work continues on the tracery block...sloooooowly |
My feline assistants were both extremely helpful this week...(and now you know why I need walls covered in cork to get things pinned up on the wall whenever I'm not there to watch them.)
 |
| my Princess (aka Feline Assistant #1) |
 |
| and her mini me. (aka Feline Assistant, Jr.) |
 |
| We also had "tree day," possibly the kitties favorite day of the year (Good Human ;) ) |
