Bread Basket Cloth

As regular visitors know I have only recently learnt to crochet, the only thing I have made previously was a dish cloth, but I wanted to learn to do filet, I found this Fleur-de-Lis bread cloth on Crochet pattern central, there are lots of mistakes but I am pleased with the result, considering I have never followed a crochet pattern before.

Lioness

As regular visitors will know I started this painting last year and due to unforseen circumstances I did not manage to finish it, well, Ta Da !! here is the finished painting.
It is painted in oils on canvas.

I have recently found out who took the photo I based the painting on. He is called Frans Lanting, he takes incredible pictures, you can see some of his work here.
