Hello there fellow Deskers and happy What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday :o)
Here's my little workroom today ...
Were you fooled? just for a moment?? This is, of course, the miniature sewing room I had just started on last week, so I thought you might like to see how it went.
It's not quite finished - I still have to add the lighting and complete the shell with a false ceiling and hinged wall, but you get the gist. Here's how it will snuggle into one of my bookshelves ...
If you look reeeeeeeeeally closely, you will see that the tiny lady who works in this room is just about to give a final pressing to a face mask she's made ...
I thought it would be fun to add a little memento of 2020 for posterity :o)
Here's my real workdesk this morning ...
I've been cutting out the fabrics ready to make the Rococo outit for this shameless lady. I've left her bald as I may do my own thing with the hair later, instead of what's in the kit. I also want to try and incorporate this beautiful piece of fine silk embroidery which I have been hoarding for years ...
It really is so beautifully done, the back looks almost as good as the front and it feels so delicate and, well, silky. Thought I might try running it down the front of her dress as a decorative panel. Or maybe the back, as it's one of those sack dresses with the full length pleated drape of fabric at the back.
Anyway, enough waffle, we have an early morning booking for a walk around one of our local National Trust treasures, Felbrigg - which should be lovely, but I may want to be home sitting in the shade by lunchtime as it's set to be another scorcher!
Quick nip over to Julia's to link up and then I'll be back later to see what everyone else has been doing this week. See you there!
