Sunday 6 February 2011

 Now that my thumb is as last better, I have manged to finish making the little boat for my youngest Grandson, Zach.  I posted a photo of the hull last weekend, just after I had painted it.  In the cold light of day, I decided it looked to pristine and bright, so applied another coat of gesso to it.  I shall start working on the boat  for Josh next week.
I also got out my paints and pencils to do the first few day of February in my journal.

I love your boat, I made one too but just for me, however a small great grandson thinks he would like one hanging in his room so I will probably make another.

I have so enjoyed my visit here to your lovely blog and your sail boat is adorable. I love the little details and stitch work you used. I am sure it will be a cherished treasure for your grandson.
Great journal too.
