GK The Arab Tent- 2/26/2011

This is a project I am working on for another sal this was sadly neglected for 14 months this is where I left off

and this is what it looked like after the first sal

This SAL is held once a month for one weekend and it is a challenge for you to work on a particular piece for the whole year. It was nice to pick this up again.

It's nice to see another GK on the forum. This is a lovely design, and I'm looking forward to seeing it progress. I get the sense that you like horses!

Thanks for the compliments. To Play outside yes I love horses and actually have 4 live ones!! To Faith Yes the price is expensive and I have to tell you the blends are a bit of a trouble to work with but the end result is amazing.

I looked at their site yesterday and got excited that they do not only solid colours now but The Wedding by Luke Fidelis and another by the same title by Johann Hamza which i love but both 5 plus level :( .
