I started a second dress based on the same design as Monica's wine red gown. This one will be green. I found that I still had the exact same fabric that I'd used for the bodice, but in green. And there was also quite a length of the same gold-edged velvet ribbon, but in dark green. The basic bodice is the same so far, but the details of this new gown will be a little different...
And for anyone wondering what's happened to Rex and Bianca after they left in the limo..... nothing yet. They are still stuck in the limo. I hope they are having a good time as I work to create the venue and food for their destination. It could still be a little while.
I researched what kind of food would be served at Medieval and Tudor feasts - mostly meats and pastries - and have started to recreate some miniature versions.
I like to keep the polymer clay as thin as possible, so first built up forms out of wooden disks and aluminum foil. Everything had to be wrapped with florist tape, since polymer clay won't stick to the bare wood. I thought I'd start with the three most elaborate items....

I mixed up some 'pastry-coloured' polymer clay, and spent much of today building up the 'pastry'
These are probably meat pies, and there was likely a bird baked inside the pastry on the top...
...and this one would of had a roast peacock inside....
They've been baked now, and need to be painted, and then I can start forming the bases for the next batch of food items.
