Sneak peek!

I got my hands on the prettiest fabrics today! They are from Japan, very soft and oh the prints!
This is a preview before I take proper photos (pressing them, proper lighting, background.. Etc)
These aren't cheap, so there will be a premium charged. Are you interested? Email me before they are all gone!

Panel fabric with swedish designs

What should I do with this? This is so cute but it was an impulse buy so I only got half a yard.
Uncle didn't even cut straight lines :(((
I'm very particular about cutting fabrics because it affects my sewing.
Anyhow... Should I just leave it like that or.. Make a bag? :)

Rounded pouch!

Rounded, just like apples!

I bought this apple-printed hankerchief when was in Guangzhou last year. Well, I don't use hankies, but the fabric was too pretty to resist.

I finally took it out today and decided to make a different style of pouch. I wanted to try pleated at the front, but it didn't quite work out. So I tried this way instead. I'm gonna give the pleated one another try next day.

I still have 3 other different fabrics to use... but this apple print is the nicest. My cousin saw it and immediately ordered from me :)
Do you like it too?

What happens on Sundays


So this is me, on a Sunday, putting in some effort to making my Facebook Page look a little more decent than the big mess that it is now. My man made a small lightbox for me, which makes my photos look a tiny bit more professional.
Haha, I think this set up looks funny.
Anyway, I kinda have a big collection of fabrics AND they are all over my room... So this is gonna take a while. I have only just uploaded 11 new images to my Fabrics album and I gotta run to town to get some supplies for some orders!


All this time, Lipton accompanies me by sleeping on the most comfortable spot on my bed! It's a good thing that I've had a very well-rested night (12 hours, to be exact...) if not, just watching him would induce anyone to zzzzzzzzz...
It IS Sunday after all, and everyone is entitled to do whatever they like!

Every gadget needs a sleeve!

Although I believe that every gadget needs to have a pretty case to protect from dirt and little scratches, sometimes my phone goes naked and I can't be bothered! I've yet to come up with a good looking case for my phone, so I guess I'll have to do with the nyan cat cross stitch case that I did for myself. See below!

Hee hee, how cute is that!

I've been planning on making a iPad2 case for a good friend for Christmas 2011, and I finally got around to it. Yes yes, I know, it's almost CNY 2012! This is a really belated gift...
I hand-stitched the sides with those embroidery threads (vibrant colors & better quality). This is a rather new fabric from IKEA, with grey gingham cotton as the inner fabric.
I love gingham. I think I shall go crazy with them on my next supplies trip :P

Have a great Saturday! I hope you don't end up lazing at home like I am doing now...

Waiting... waiting...

While I'm waiting for work to begin at my brother's office, I'm surfing around for inspiration. A friend asked if I make wristlet pouches. I used to make a few! But right now, with a little bit more experience, I would like to try an improved version.

So anyway, I came across this lovely clutch by EmersonMade... I'm head over heels in love!

Aren't those the prettiest clutches you have ever seen? *swoons*

On the other hand, I think this cartoon-skull fabric (Madbird) is to-die-for:

Santa's coming to town!

I went shopping today and... fell in love with this fabric that I saw! It was more expensive than what I'm used to, but I couldn't resist at all.
I'm going to make a series of limited edition pouches with this. Should I get more?
Christmas is coming! Are you ready? ;)

Cooking up something new!



I've been experimenting on the perfect size pouch for cosmetics! A friend recently placed a rather big order for a pouch that's bigger than what I have been doing, for her girlfriends tocarry their make-up around. I think it's great, because I could use one too :)


For everything that I make, I have this standard template to cut out the fabrics, so that every piece I make is as similar as possible. Some crafters use freezer paper, some use paper, some use cardboard pieces. I prefer using any card-like material I can get my hands on. Mailers, thin cardboard boxes, and in this case - cereal box. Reuse, friends!

I can't wait to share more photos when I'm done!

On another note, look at those gorgeous fabrics that I have :) I've always told myself that I have TOO MUCH fabrics. But honestly, you can NEVER have enough. They make me happy!

Oh I've just completed an order for 2 sets of the Stitched Heart coasters for an old friend - whom I haven't seen in forever, but soooo nice of her to show support to my work!
