This flake is called White Majesty and it sure is a pretty one.
The 3 parts completed and still looking a bit wonky...
Pinned and starched with a glue & water mix. The 2 smaller ones are pinned at a 90 degree angle
It seems that 24 hours is a good time to leave them to dry and now they are ready for the next step.
I glue one side on, using Aleene's Tacky glue. It dries quickly, clear and remains flexible. Exactly what I need for this. a fabric glue would also work well I expect.
Once the one side is dry enough, I add the other side and perch the flake onto a 90 degree piece of wood.
Adding extra blocks to keep the pieces in the right places until the glue is dry.
And there it is, White Majesty is ready for a hanging thread
And here are the 2 flakes getting acquainted. I still need to find a place to store these...
