Crafty Catz #502- Optional twist- Paper piecing.

The sweet image I used is called
I coloured her hair and face with copics and paper pieced her kimono and parasol with a long hoarded piece of dsp (Far East) from DCWV.


I don't think yesterday's announcement of another 3 weeks lockdown came as much of a surprise to anyone, just stay safe and well - and keep busy!
Thanks for stopping by
