Yesterday I picked up a standard double mat at the crafts emporium and fixed Ch'ing up for his trip to Leigh Designs. Isn't he handsome? The background shimmer you see is from a piece of gold lame fabric placed behind him. I hope you can see how magnificent he is for such a little dragon (only 4 inches in diameter). He will be mailed off next week, assuming I can find a good shipping box today or Monday. By the way, his outer mat is dark navy. I turned it turquoise by adjusting the shine from the gold lame so you could see the design well.)
Didn't finish my Cape Cod Dogs border last night (rats). I took time to start wrapping the pet guardian angels in tissue paper and putting pairs of them into plastic bags, just in case there is water present on their journey to the ANG Auction. By the time I sat down in the comfy chair, I was too tired to get a lot of stitching done. I do want to finish it before working some more on the barkcloth look of the South Seas Fiji ornament, however.
Wish me luck!
