Nacho's WIPs - Updated 5th April....New start QS bubbles!

Post by nachosmiley »

Hi all....I'm breaking the lurkers code today and thought I would post some pics of what I have been up to. :lol: I did start individual threads for all of these but I think considering I don't post as much these days that I would amalgamate them all into one thread so that I can bookmark it and find it easily when I next get around to updating! All photos are clickable thumbnails in case anyone wants to have a look at them full size....I think I will post updates as full sized pics in future I just didn't want to make my first post a whole page long!

Sooo first up is Altair...please excuse the q-snap marks...I have completed 5 and a bit pages so far this year a long way off the 10 I wanted to do but hey ho :roll:
Image

Chatelaine Mystery- Deep Blue Sea.....severely neglected this year :oops: hopefully I will feel the love for it again soon!
Image

Literate Dragon......so very close....hoping to finish him very soon!
Image

Mini Fairy book.....nearly all the way across the top :D
Image

SK Oak King.....I just love the detailed face on this piece! :D
Image

Magic Dragon....I'm working on this one this week :dance:
Image

And finally my HAED BAP Lady in the Meadow.....only one page complete but this one is relatively new!
Image

Thanks for looking :wub: :D

:applesauce: :applesauce: I have missed you and missed your updates also. These are just gorgeous and you are making fantastic progress with a few finishes not far away. Literate Dragon and SK Oak King are so close and both are fantastic! Magic Dragon is lovely and the fabric is perfect.
I hope that you will keep us up to date on these pieces and any others that you start. So glad to hear from you!

I've missed your updates Sam, though I've seen some bits here and there on the HAED BB. Great work, hadn't realised you'd started a new HAED BAP, it's looking beautiful! I've been a bit more of a lurker too in recent months, it's hard to keep up, but I have forum members who I always look out for, so it's lovely to see your updates. Hoping one day you will feel the love for DBS and pick it up again :D !
