Hello Vanessa, it's so pretty - absolutely charming:) I love the papers you have used and of course my favourite flower:) Also love the yarn you have used, it works so well.

What a beautiful creation, the colours and textures work so well together, ooooo you are such a talented girl!!
It's lovely when you discover someones work which touches you isn't it, I can see that you are drawn to Cathy's work, it reminds me of Julie Arkell who I imagine you also like?
I just discovered Sarah Ahearn's work, my goodness I could have every single one of her pieces, they are delicious, take a look...

Oh, how lovely. I'm just going over for a look too...
The violas set off the pot perfectly.

Love it! the colours are great, fresh and summery, the knitting is perfect and the choice of the wool works perfect with the paper.. and I must say, I think it is a better version of the original (sorry moon). Well done!
