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!!

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..

Gifts For Teachers

I've made the diary covers purposely to be given to Saffiya's teachers. Managed to finish two diary covers for her teachers. Hopefully I can finish the rest of it by today since tomorrow is the last day of school.

Above is for Cikgu Samli (her class teacher). Credit must be given to Natalie of Cinderberry Stitches for the embroidery pattern. Unfortunately it was not perfectly done by me!! hu..hu..hu..


The inner part.


And another one for Cikgu Azlina (her BM teacher). The front part of it. Not forgetting the credit also goes to Roslyn Mirrington of Bloomandblossom for her journal cover tutorial.


Finally the inner part of it.

Hopefully the teachers will like it. Saffiya was really happy about it. She can't wait to go to school this morning!! la..la..la..

BOM Quilt

Below is my upcoming project with other quilters. Hope I can manage to finish 'my task' on time and hope everything is running smoothly.

[BOM06final.jpg]

Here's the link : http://www.bomquilts.com/BOM06_cinnamon-teen.html

And here are my fellow friends including myself (copy n paste from Kak Fida's) :
  1. Faridah a.k.a Fida
  2. Kak Dee
  3. FAWA
  4. Mrs. Fedex
  5. Kak Pah
  6. Kak Aton
  7. Kak Naiz
  8. Aimila
  9. Hani
  10. KukaKuka
  11. Cik Kema
  12. Kak Maz
And here is the procedure (also copy n paste from kak fida's) :

1. Para peserta tolong bagitau saya apa kaler yg diaorang nak nanti saya akan update dan letak nama berserta dengan kaler yg dah dipilih disebelah sidebar saya ni...so senang nak pantau. Yang penting kaler putih diperlukan untuk background setiap block baru nampak timbul pattern dan juga kaler yg dah dipilih.. :) Saya cadang kan kita pakai 3 kaler :-
1 . putih
2 . kaler pilihan
3 . kaler pilihan

2. Saya akan buat cabutan apabila kita dah nak start main siapa yg akan dapat no berapa dan block apa dia nak kena buat. Contohnye katakanlah..dalam bulan Januari Saya dapat no 1 dan block yang saya kena buat adalah block no 1 dan cik kema dapat no 2 block yg cik kema kena buat adalah block no 2 begitulah seterusnya sehingga block 12. Dan bila dah siap semua org kena hantar pada peserta pertama ini let say pada hari isnin minggu terakhir dalam bulan tersebut. Peserta pertama ini akan menerima 12 block yg berlainan dan dah boleh start buat quilt :) Jangan risau kalau tak paham nanti saya akan bagitau setiap bulan giliran siapa dan block apa dia kena buat...so tak keliru.

3. Cara penghantaran saya cadangkan pakai pos ekspress tu, yg envelop kecik tu..tak mahal sangat baru 3.50 kan?..

4. Tolong update blog supaya senang saya nak pantau siapa dah pos dan penerima dah terima parcel.

Me, myself have chosen white, pink and green as my project colours. Other frens?? Their choice of colours? I'll update later on.

*****Harap dapat tunjuk ajar daripada kawan2 quilters yang lain. Sy mmg tiada pengalaman langsung di dalam penyertaan sebegini. Memang sangat2 mengharapkan bantuan kawan2 yang lain.
