Surely it must be .........

.................... almost time for bed now

It's about 11pm on a Thursday night here in Taunton, I returned home from my Choir practice about an hour ago.  Nigel is away overnight for work and the two youngest have been left to fend for themselves.  Unbeknown to me Louise's GCSE Art project needs to be handed in tomorrow


Most worrying is that as I walked in the door she is still sitting free machine embroidering at the sewing machine


These are samples she needs to complete and then I think embellish with beads and couching before they go into the project book to be handed in tomorrow morning


This is the final piece - a tree design based on a trunk drawn around her hand - I'm guessing this also needs to be handed in tomorrow morning - who knows if it is actually complete or needs further work

This is the 'Last Minute Lulu' with her 'practice Prom Hair Up-do' (just a mess about at home the other evening - we haven't ventured into the hairdressers to open discussions quite yet) ........


from the front........



and from the back.............

At this rate she may still be working to complete this art project by the time of her prom in July!!!!

I am laughing - not at you, but at the memory. I must say I do not miss these days at all *s*

Oh Art GCSE's I remember it not so fondly! It was all last minute around here too when DD1 went through it.

I hope that 'Last Minute Lulu' managed to finish last night...though I have to say sitting here it all looks pretty amazing already!

Love the hair too...It's gorgeous and I'm not sure a pro could do much better.
