The first picture shows the most recent commission completed using the copperfoil method (one of the methods taught at The Wooburn Craft School.)  This is a sanctuary lamp for St.Peter’s Catholic Church on Carronbridge Road in Eastleaze, Swindon (SN5 7ES). Its dimensions were approximate are its Diameter to top contour 25cm, Diamter to lower section 17cm and stands approximately 33cm – see the second picture below.  This project was guided by Rev.Dr Michael Saunders. On thi project there was metal work included – this was carried out by Zeke Moss, (Thame Forge. 01844215979).

Lili has also recently been commissioned to produce a leaded stained glass for the library of the Sacred Heart Roman Catholic School in Tollgate, Peterborough.

Following is a rough of the design drawn to scale, for which she is currently cutting (first picture).

These are both very important and challenging projects for Lili to tackel.  We offer our sincerest congratulations.
