The project

I don't think I have a practical bone in my body, but I've decided it's about time I try to cultivate one. I've bought myself a little 'starter pack' of bits of fabric, ribbon, embroidery thread, buttons etc and I'll see where it takes me. Some of them are in this image. It's likely that I won't produce anything I'd want to show anyone, but who knows. It's quite possible this is the last you'll ever hear of my project. Wish me luck, anyway. :)

 

The porcelain half doll is one of 4 which arrived recently. She was made in Germany and dates from the 1920s. There's an old Sylko cotton reels box in the background as well as a couple of Sylko wooden cotton reels, which date from the 1930s-early 50s.
