That's very striking, Carol: am sure your Mum's friend will love it. Poor you, having to start all over again for the other friend - are you like me, and aren't keen to repeat exactly the same project immediately after the previous one?

Re: Emerald spiral & Cab
I can see why she'd want another, but does she realise how long they take. It's gorgeous, my most favourite colour.

Re: Emerald spiral & Cab
Very beautiful. Don't you just hate it when someone wants another one? I know I do.
Re: Emerald spiral & Cab
Thanks everyone for all your lovely comments it was a lot of work (hours) but i think it turned out fab, and was worth every minute i put into it!
I have showed it to my mum, told her how long it took, and that i would charge £60 for it if she was a customer (i know, expensive, i told a little white fib lol) As my mum has only paid me for the cost of the components, and i dont know if she intends to pay me anything for all that time i put into making it.
I also told her that i didnt think it was a good idea to have another one made similar/different colour as it wasnt so personal to the person receiving it.
I have also told her to leave it with me and i will think of something else to make for her other friend (something easier and
not so time consuming lol).

Re: Emerald spiral & Cab
Wow - it's really lovely, Carol! I don't blame you for not wanting to make another one the same though!
