Busy, busy, busy

I have been very busy. Ive been working on the old house, designing a miniature fireplace and away at the CMW Lite workshop weekend.

I have loads of things to update regarding the old house refurbishment. The main house is almost complete and the fronts now need to be worked on.

I came to point where I could leave the house and begin something I wanted to do. I was limited for time before I went away to build the Tudor house with Sue Simpson at CMW. I had homework to do before I went. I also decided to make a fancy fireplace. The one I chose was based on one at Anne of Cleeves House at Lewes, East Sussex. Since it was made from photos it wont be exactly to scale of the original. It also has to fit the room in the house. I'm now making a smaller version.

Then I began the build of the Tudor house. I've been really excited about it. But the weekend was right where the record for highest temperature was recorded. We were all finding it difficult in the heat. I was not feeling well by the end of day one. I began day two feeling awful. At the end of the 3 days we all had recognisable houses but a ton of work still has to be done at home.

I now have loads to update on various pages!
