I am really having to concentrate hard on the placement of the aeonium flowers as they need to be fitted in the correct layer sequence. I'm finding it a bit stressful as there is no going back once drilled then riveted in place.

When you design a piece of work, there is always a moment when you can be sure that the idea and craftsmanship will combine and make the vision a reality. Today, I had forged enough flowers to group them in layers. I've still got to forge another 28 flowers, but I'm excited by what I am creating.

Another years @springfling open studios is over. What a fantastic event it was yet again. Thanks to everyone who came to visit - it was lovely to meet you all. As always, my demo was forging leaves. Creating autumn in the spring!
