Only one comment Kev, turn the light on next time you take iffy piccys! The blue looks nice and rich mate and the lace work pops out nicely.

Cheers Simon

Can’t afford the bulb ....lol.......will do BOSS

Cheers for comment ref the “popping” lace

Pleased to say the hats coming along

That blue looks good, seems much deeper than you had previously. Shows off the excellent braid detail nicely.

Thank you for the comments appreciate yr time

Hi Guys

I nearly finished the hat lace .......whilst working on prepping another bust with a craft knife ....YES !! ...you know what's coming .....it slipped and went across both hat and face ........can't type what I said

Sent a message to Mark to get replacements ...so all being well it's going to be completed once I receive them ...fingers crossed

Nap ...not happy

Ouch, but better than cutting through your hand I suppose.

Cheers Simon

Oooh an expensive mistake...I hear a replacement hat will cost you in the region of 1.9 million Euros.
Sorry about your misfortune.

I can't leave you alone for 5 minutes.....
Destroying Naps hat, and then wounding yourself.....
Dear oh dear, these things do happen.
I'm sure you'll pull the hat out of the bag, and get it sorted. ( no pun intended)

I think under the circumstances, we won't object to your entry being a little late.
Your hard work deserves to be in the comp.
Get well soon, Carole too.
