Sorry for the radio silence. It wasn’t my intention of course to not be online – I feel as if I have given little time to blogging despite myself.
Certainly, part of my absence was due to being away for the weekend. The Boyfriend and I went to Sheffield for a masquerade ball, which was a deal of fun. I made my own mask – a challenge in itself, but good fun. As you can see below, I used a card bag featuring gold glitter stars overlaid with part of the score of Holst’s St. Paul’s suite and special 3D ink painted bronze with glitter, and feathers to decorate one side. The fabric teal support band around my head is from the same cut of fabric as a Steampunk dress I designed and a friend made.
