Hello and welcome to another week of What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday, where we can all take a peek into the work spaces of crafty people all over the world. You can join in
here.
My desk this week...
...is the dining room table. I've taken one of the new kits-in-a-tin range from work to make up for display. I chose the Mini Mechanic set, which comprises of bits to make a plane, car and helicopter. I think it is the best value for money out of all the kits in the range. I've just spent two hours making a plane and half a helicopter with my fat fingers. Hours of fun for a ten year old. I also wish to promote that our shop has more craft kits for boys these days, by sticking them all in this week's window display.
At a loose end after finishing the birthday present, I couldn't help but start another. This is the entire design. It just gets bigger! Currently sitting at about 10cm /4in squared.
I'm giving the birthday present to the recipient this Friday, so will hopefully try and get a picture of her with it for next week's blog. I hope she'll like it.
In other news, I've started work on this year's garden. Was going to take a picture but it got dark. Doh. So far we have strawberries, peppers, nasturtium, beans, peas and carrots. Thinking about planting beetroot, broccoli and sprouts. More next week.
Have a great week everyone! xxx

WOW Lucy you have been busy, great to have a vege garden going and your embroidery is way cool and loved the last one too....just not what you'd expect. Have a great week Cheers RobynO#22
ReplyDeleteHi Lucy...... Do you ever sleep? The kits sound fun I look forward to seeing those hopefully next week if the window is still in that is ..... Thanks for holding the fort etc..
ReplyDeleteYour latest present looks simple but I bet it isn't as it could be easy to get lost in the repetitive design.....good luck with it

Such a beautiful, classic *and* ancient design. I love it. And, clearly, you do to!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy!
I love the design you are making there...I would call it 'maze' but I am influenced by a bit of native american culture around here. So awesome Spring has arrived and you have started you garden :) Shel@PaperOcotilloStudio #17
ReplyDeleteLove the little plane. Bet I could turn that into a nice steampunk piece with a few extra bit added. Hoping you have a great crafty week. Happy woyww, Angela x 36 x
ReplyDeleteSpring has arrived! I love messing in the garden. I no longer have a garden but I have large planters in the patio and I have planted basil seeds. They are nearly an inch tall now.
ReplyDeleteI like your 'maze'. You can make it any size you want.
I'd love to see a photo of the recipient of the present. Please show us next week.
Have a great week,

My son used to love playing with the metal bits and would spend hours making all sorts of fun stuff and then play with that for days before disassembling and building new. Love the embroidered square. I am looking for medieval embroidery patterns to do on garb. Have a great week. Vickie #8
