Ann Pickard Modelling course







Had a lovely day today modelling on a course with Ann Pickard in Swindon. We started off with the animals then progressed onto the christmas things and finally Santa.

Mothers Day cake

The second cake was for Mothers day 2009. I had recently attended a one day modelling course in Swindon with Ann Pickard - what a fabulous tutor she is. If you get the chance to attend one of her classes, I would definately recomend it. She is back in Swindon on Aug 16th 2009

Our final model of the day was a lady sat in an armchair. My lady was knitting and I decided to use it as a topper for my Mum's mothers day cake. It was an 10" madeira sponge cake (recipe from the Ann pickard books). Finish was not great and I do not think I kneaded the icing enough to make it pliable but we live and learn.
