@Gazza75  Oh Gazza75 the bee is adorable :D!x

[FragileMe]

@Gazza75 that bee is adorable! 

What is it made from? Reminds me of Bindees stidy beads from many years ago.

Thought I'd upload a colouring I finished this week

@FragileMe  That’s a lovely colouring you’ve done. We haven’t met.

Welcome to the forums and craft corner.

@cutiepiekitty  I checked out bobbin lace. Looks very complicated, but very beautiful.

@FragileMe, if you go back a few pages I describe it in a bit of detail to Greenpea.  It's called diamond painting.  Essentially small beads stuck on a sticky canvas, like paint by numbers.  I've done about 5 or 6 now.  Thanks for sharing your colouring in and glad you found your way to the craft corner 🙂

Just wanted to say a hi and a welcome also @FragileMe. Your colouring is lovely ❤

[cutiepiekitty]

Yes @Maggie  it is beautiful, and only complicated until you understand it.

Welcome @FragileMe we have not met, your picture is lovely.

@Maggie that looks really good, sometimes I  find it hard to work out which needle to use and so I do a a little bit to work out which needle to 

@CheerBear I would love to have the pattern for what Maggie did as it looks great

@Gazza75 @greenpea @Cutiepie @outlander @Judi9877 happy crafting today to any one that is making. 

[Gazza75]

Hope you have a good day today.  

Take care

Hi @saturnzoon @CheerBear @Gazza75 @cutiepiekitty @Maggie @outlander  A big friendly hello from me to @FragileMe as well and welcome😊. Just popping in to say I’m still around despite not being on this thread for a few days!

I love your crochet @Maggie ! Well done! Also to you @CheerBear ! I’ve heard of Sophie’s universe crochet but am a little fearful of it as I’m not that advanced and it looks complicated! I’m glad that you have done parts of it though! Keep up the great crochet work! 

@Gazza75 I love your Van Gogh diamond dots painting! It’s gorgeous! I have a particular like of that picture and would love to personally stitch it in cross stitch, so I just may have to track it down and add it to my list! There is a painting I saw in the National Gallery of Victoria back in 2016 called The Weeping Woman - I can’t recall the artist- but that also struck a chord of emotion with me and I’d like to cross stitch that picture as well. I’m not very up with art in general but I do know what I like and can admire the talent in what artists do. I also like how their pictures can be transformed into other things like diamond dots paintings, cross stitch, etc. So versatile! 

@FragileMe i like your colouring in picture! Very cute! Well done! I like colouring in mandalas in colouring in books myself and drawing random things. I have included a photo of my picture I did on Wednesday which I’m proud of. I’m thinking of photocopying it and adding to it by colouring in the circles but I’m not sure yet. I hope you like it. 

Okay! That’s all for me! Time to do some uni work! Have a great day crafting and I’ll catch up with you all soon!
