Mabel, that is so very kind and thoughtful of you.

I'm sure the recipient will be delighted with it, rainbows always go down well.

I specifically asked her mother whether she liked rainbows, and I thought I'd get both her name and her age in the deisgn so it would show it have been made especially for her :-).

And here it is - the lettering was a bit of a challenge :shock: and I've still got to mount it in a card but I'm hoping to send it off today or tomorrow.

Beautiful Mabel, absolutely beautiful.

I'm sure Clara will be delighted to have such a personalised card.

I realised to my horror that I started Hengest as long ago as January 2019, and that I last worked on him in July! He is a very intermittent unicorn indeed. Not much progress, but he does have a few more locks to his mane :dance: .

I knew there was some unfinished WIP, but forgot what(who) it was. Great to see this guy again.

:wave: Hello Hengest, lovely to see you again.

And what lovely flowing locks they are.

Maybe he's born with it, maybe it's Mabel - line. :lol:

Well I was singing it in my head as I wrote it, it's a good job you couldn't hear me, I sound like a piece of coal caught under a door :lol:
