Re: Chromatic Alchemy has a website!!

Wendy, I'm afraid I had a misdye with your Yuanyang which delayed your order slightly. It's been re-dyed and they are winging their way to you now :D

So glad you like your pieces Serinde. Phew...some people you really feel like you need to impress, your order was one of those :lol:

I had a lovely afternoon today, I was lucky enough to attend one of our very own Mabel's shisha (mirrorwork) embroidery classes! I just about got it finished and had a lot of fun creating it!
