I ‘ve been exploring new methods  with this dog.  It’s a trial piece for some workshops I’m doing at Beech Hall School next month.  My usual workshop pattern is to run a series of 2-hour sessions over several weeks so we have drying time between each one.  For the school though, I have 2 full days so I need to make sure we can keep working while things are still wet and sticky (and boy, can they get wet and sticky!)  As a result I’ve had to come up with a different technique for making and attaching the legs.  Rather pleasingly, it worked first time!  I think we’ll be able to get this far on the first day and get the head and tail in place and the whole thing finished on day 2.
