Raphael

Close up view of Raphael

Nearly finished my angel box. Although still not sure if there is something missing on the top and may change the finials

This is how far I have got since last post. Now the embroidery begins!

This project was to create a stole for Christingle (The Children's Society) to be worn on Christmas Eve. This is the second stole I made although the is my favourite. Would like to make more stoles in the future. This was made from satin, polyester/cotton and angelina fibres. The main emblem for Christingle is the Orange to represent the world, red ribbon to represent the love and blood of Christ and sweets symbols of God's creation. The candle symbolises Jesus, the light of the world. Check out The Children's Society website for further info (www.childrenssociety.org.uk).

Did not like the last Angel I did so working on more stylised figures. What do you think. Raphael, Uriel, Michael and Gabriel.

This is the start of my embroidery for a project I started last month. This will be Raphael although I wings will be added later. This will be added to a larger piece. I need to complete Archanger Gabriel, Michael and Uriel.

Just to let you know that my work is now being sold at the Nucleus Art centre in Rochester Kent. I would highly recommend visiting Rochester as it has a good arty vibe plus the cathedral is beautiful.
