Robin Cushion

An applique cushion?! We haven't seen one of those for at least a couple of weeks!
Oh well, here's another one.
This one is for my Gran for Christmas.
 
 

Light Up Quote Picture

For my Dad's birthday this year I went for a bit of painting, I don't do a lot of painting so it was something a bit different for me, I chose a Harry Potter theme for my fellow Potter fan.
 
I started by printing the lettering in my chosen font and size from the computer, a Potter font that I downloaded, stuck the paper to the back of the canvas, and held it over a light to trace it.
 
I stuck to black and white paint for this one, so I painted black around all the letters.
  
 
This took a long time! Then to paint the letters in white.
 
 
Then I worked out where I wanted the lights, poked holes in the canvas with a knitting needle, and secured the lights and battery pack in place.
 
And here it is finished.
