Kenangan Lama..

Slash Quilt ni mengingatkan aku ketika saat pertama aku mula belajar menjahit. at that time i know nothing about sewing especially quilting n patchworking. Baju mmg langsung tak tahu jahit apatah lagi kalau nak buat quilting ataupun patchwork.

Slash quilt ni ler was my 1st project. bila diingat2 balik kelakar pulak rasanya bila 1st time berjaya membuatnya.

Tapi sekarang ni dah lima tahun menjadi ahli VIP epal. Alhamdulillah..bnyk yg aku pelajari dari sana. cuma projeknya selalu ajer tak berkesempatan nak up-load kat sini. slow2 lah lepas ni..

ni pun projek masa 'zaman mula2' menjahit dulu. smpai sekarang ianya masih digunakan.

yang ni pun sama. sebenarnya ini adalah bakul jahitan dan di atasnya mempunyai penutup. tapi disebabkan 'kerajinan' aku yg bermaharajalela, tutup tu dilupakan begitu saja. jadilah ia tempat menyimpan bedak2 serta sikat2 anak dara aku yg dua org tu.

Lain kali aku masukkan gambar projek2 zaman dulu. tunggu lah yer..zaman bila agaknya..huhuhu...

Giveaway By Zura!!!

Sorry for the lack of post lately.

Updating the blog so that I won't miss out the chance to win this giveaway.

Whose giveaway, anyway???!!

Zura of Sew RetroChic....

I'm crazy over her fabrics. Although I'm aware that I have little chance on winning her giveaway, (due to soooo many participants entering the giveaway) but I still wanna try. At least i'm trying!!!

The giveaway is really fantastic!! My mouth just can not utter any words when I first saw her giveaway. The only word that came out from my mouth was "WOW"!!! and I told myself to participate!!

So, you ladies...if u feel that u need to own those fabrics, do drop by at zura's place for further information.

dream comes true.....

Been busy lately.. not really busy but I think the most suitable word for it is "being occupied". Yeah.. that's the word. School session is just around the corner therefore I would say, a mother like me is having some kinda "jogathon" everyday (especially towards the end of school break). So many things in my mind that yet to be realized. I'm not sure whether I can make it. Anyway I love being a mother!!! I'm having a wonderful experience being a mother to my kiddos and also a wife to my hubby. There's nothing more precious as compared to those wonderful experiences.
I treasure my life!!! That's it!!

Hey!!! Look what I've got. Kinda small treat for me!! I am madly in love with those fabrics!! I can't stop myself from buying the stashes. I think it is really therapeutic kinda thing. Don't u think so??

and also the patterns which catches my fancy

this is the place where I have been last saturday (just to get all those lovely things) with my family.

You love it??? Kindly drop by at Anna Patchwork House. The place is lovely!! You'll never regret!!
Many thanks to my hubby who supports me all this while. He is really my great supporter!! Thanks Dear!!

Love

I love these...

and also these...

I love them all...and they are MINE!!.
I bought them all from Jaja.
Am a big fan of her.
I love and fancy all her handmades creation.
Thanks a lot to you Jaja.
Really nice to know such a wonderful + talented person like her.
Do drop by to her place. She's got soooo many wonderful things to be shown to all of you!!!
And you'll love it, for sure.

Untuk Ayu...

Ini adalah "pincushion" dan juga "needlebook case'"untuk pasangan "stash swap" saya, Ayu yang dirancang dan diatur oleh Hani. Kami tergolong di dalam kumpulan yang ketiga bagi tujuan tersebut. Barangan tersebut (serta beberapa barangan lain yg tdk sempat saya rakamkan gambarnya) adalah sebagai "suprise stash" dari saya. Terus-terang saya nyatakan di sini bahawa sesungguhnya saya berasa amat segan dan malu atas pemberian saya ini buat Ayu sementelah kerjatangan saya tidaklah secantik dan sekemas kerjatangan Ayu. Tetapi saya amat berharap yang Ayu akan menyukainya.

Yang ini pula adalah '3 FQs' dan juga 'Felt' seperti yang disyaratkan itu...

Ribon dan juga butang....

Walau apapun...suka saya nyatakan di sini sebenarnya saya amat bertuah dapat menyertai "stash swap" ini. Harus diakui sebenarnya aktiviti sebegini dapat mengeratkan tali Silaturrahim sesama kita (dan sememangnya saya seorang yang amat suka berkawan!!!). Dan saya masih menanti apa perancangan Hani yang seterusnya kerana apa yang pasti walau apa jua perancangannya saya akan TURUT SERTA!! Yeay!!

Giveaway By Hani!!!

Before it's too late, let me join this giveaway conducted by HANI. I wanted to join it few weeks back but b'coz of time constraint, rushing here and there makes me totally forgot about it. But it's not too late as there's still time for me to join it in.

If u feel like joining it, let's have a visit to her place for more information. I can't think of what I actually want at this moment. What really matter is that I want the shirt to be written exactly like the shirt shown above. Hope Hani will let me win this time!!! I mean it!!!! As I can forsee that, little chance for me to win her giveaway (soooooo many participants..)hu..hu..hu..

Meet My Miss Birdie and Mr Heartfelt

Sudah sekian lama saya tidak 'mengeraskan' tangan untuk menghasilkan sesuatu daripada 'felt', kan?? Jadi kali ini saya merasakan ada eloknya jika saya cuba 'mengeraskan' jari-jemari saya bagi tujuan tersebut. Saya pernah menghasilkannya sebelum ini di dalam entri yang lalu. Seperti biasa hasil kerjatangan saya ada sahaja 'cacat-cela' nya. Masih lagi tidak dapat menghasilkan kerjatangan sebaik rakan 'crafters' yang lain. Sedih juga...

Inilah hasilnya yang tak seberapa 'My Mr Heartfelt' tu . Saja saya namakannya begitu kerana tujuan ia dihasilkan tentulah untuk en suami yg tersayang (dengan harapan ianya dapat digantung di mana-mana di dalam bilik pejabatnya. He..he..he...). Walaupun pemberian ini nyata tak seberapa, en suami ternyata amat gembira menerimanya (mungkin sebab terpaksa menerimanya). Saya?? Tentulah sangat gembira...

Yang ini pula adalah "My Miss Birdie". Tujuan ia dihasilkan adalah untuk 'menempatkan' jarum-jarum peniti yang semakin bertambah di ruang menjahit saya. Ianya boleh digantung sekaligus menampakkan dirinya seolah-olah seperti seekor burung yang sedang terbang.

Rakan2 yang lain bagaimana? Apa 'projek' anda yang seterusnya??? Harap semuanya gembira dengan apa sahaja yang telah dihasilkan. Bye!!

Stash Swap (Group 3).

Salam...
Finally the long awaited parcel has arrived!! I was so happy when I received the parcel from mr hubby. It's from Zura of Sewretrochic! I could not wait to see what's inside!!

Ta daaa... awesome stuffs inside!!

Closer view... These are the fabrics - American Cottons. They are from a very wellknown fabric designers - Amy Butler, Dena Designs & Alexander Henry. Wow!! I heart the fabrics soooo much. Many thanx to zura. Very kind of her to let me have those fabrics!!

The felts, buttons, ribbons, animal eyes n 'noses'. I was so lucky to have them. Anything not mention in the stash swap terms I regard it as a suprise which I greatly appreciate. Thanks again to zura.

Big suprise for me!! Really gives me kinda "INSPIRATION". The mag is fabulous. I Love it!! Really do. Suprising.. zura was able to read my mind especially my interest in embroidery.

I really want to say a big thanks to zura for all the good stuffs she has given me. I heart them sooo much. Actually she has given me more than what she is supposed to give!! Do drop by to her place. You will get amaze!!

By the way, I've sent my parcel to my partner Ayu of Sweetlilcraft. I'm not sure whether she has receive it or not. Still awaiting for her response or anything as regard to the matter.

Have a nice weekend!!!

Pinchusion and Sewing Caddy

Salam to everybody.. feeling low lately... maybe because of the weather especially in the east coast side where its been raining all day long. Nevertheless house chores never end!!! Always busy preparing the kids with their meals..hu..hu..hu..
By the way, bottom is the pincushion + sewing caddy for my 'sewing patner', Kak Anne. I have not met her for a long time. Really miss her. Ironicolly whenever I'm thinking of her, there will be a phone call by her. There you go Kak Anne. As usual it was not perfectly done by me but lucky me she loves it!! Thank you Kak Anne for everything. (I'm yet to have time to help creating a blog for her as she is 'blogless' at the moment). I will come over at her house (as she can not drive!!) and God Willing I'll help her with that matter, I mean blog thingy.

The sewing caddy is the original idea of Cinderberry Stitches and the pincushion is from Quilts and more mag (If i'm not mistaken). Thank you all for spending some time reading this. Bye.!! Wassalam..
