Kimey Punyer...

Kimey is my youngest brother.. the youngest in our BIG family. This hp case has been pending for ages. Today, I was under the weather... aches here & there... Uol know la.. After taking part in netball on Teacher's Day, I got terrible headache & all types of aches all over my body. I thought a one day public holiday was enough but I was wrong. So one more off day for me.... hehehe... And....because of Raina's felt keychain project, the felt project tool box was & is still in the living room lol. That's why I completed this PHD...... Just see the result.... definitely keje org amatur kan?

Then I added a black grinning face.... At first I wanted to use yellow but... yellow? Mcm tak padan pulak. OK ler kot. Nak letak heart shape / bunga pon mcm tak masuk jer......
If uols realise, you will see the 'senget benget' stiches and the unbalanced hp case... huhuhu...
Let's open it....
Errr... alamak!!! I forgot something la...
Perasan tak? Tengok butul2....There's no button lar! Ayoyo... Soeeiii Kimey! I promise it'll be added SOON! Esok kan masih ada...

p.s. Tak boleh tepuk tangan, tepuk dahi jadik la...

THANKS TEACHER-TEACHER!

This is an annual project, done once a year... hehehe...

My lil princess has listed down all her teachers & requested me to make keychains for them... She even chose the colours & the design.... I spent a day cutting felt & another day sewing & stuffing fiber.... Finished at about 2 am.... Mmg legaaa... or I'll be in hot soup... hikss....

Thanks to all my children's teachers for teaching, guiding, educating & helping them.
As usual, I like to use "I hope that you will be happy" label... sesuaiii...


All are Raina's. I wanted to sew pouches or pencil cases for her teachers but she demanded only keychains & cards. My second son, on the other hand, bought a brooch for his Cikgu Anita (coz it's not handmade so no pic ler..) & my eldest.... didn't want anything at first but today at last... he bought cards for his 2 fave teachers at Koperasi Sekolah. Whatever la... as long as they're happy & sincere...

I used stamps including this stamp made by EUPHORIA last year. She's such a talented lady, kan? Carving isn't my cup of tea... so let the expert do it. If you are interested to see her wonderful masterpieces, click HERE . Gerenti tak nyesal nyer....

and "thank You"cards purchased from Tesco. 1 pack 8 cards= RM6.90 (taktik express nak cepat siap.. hehehe... ;D

And this is the result....
(jgn tak caya.... Happy Teacher's Day" tu hasil tulisan tgnku)

HAPPY TEACHER'S DAY!
From Raina & From Me...

We are all teachers, kan?

Teaching ourselves to appreciate the beauty of sewing... crafting... arts... handmade products.... & be environment friendly

Teaching our young kids to be great leaders

Teaching others & ourselves to be better people!


p.s. I won A Fabric Case GA! The best teacher's day present lol! Soooo over the moon.

Princess Closet: European Blockbuster GA

"Once upon a time, a fair princess who lived among the fairies summoned all her tiny small friends to her beautiful paradise. She was devastated as most of her dresses did not fit her well. She had grown up too fast! They were either too short or too tight! She gathered everyone to lend their hands. Her wardrobe definitely needed transformation! Together, the little fairies began their quest to find the best closet, filled with elegant, colourful, wonderful new dresses for their beloved fair princess....."

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! I know this fairy tale never exists but looking at the image below reminds me of all little angels or princesses we call daughters. Though the princess doesn't resemble Raina (Raina kan dh berambut pendek... hikss!) , she still reminds me of my lil princess.... And do you know that the owner of PRINCESS CLOSET is having a GA right now! (Butul... wa tatak tipu lo..)

winners will get exciting goodies like these magazines...

and 1.25m of gorgeous fabulous European cotton!
Just choose any of the cotton lol!
(bestnyer... errr.. kalau menang ler...hmm..)

If I were the winner (mula ler memerasankan diri), I'd choose this Green Forest..
as uol know I'm addicted to anything related to butterflies ... or maybe anything floral or sweet fabric with pink and blue.... This Pink Forest is just PURRRFECT!
or like the Blue Stripes below..The Blue Hearts pon cute jugak! hehehe...
plus these? bior betul... heaven!

I have a dream to create beautiful dresses for my lil Princess. Winning one of these goodies is a dream come true but sewing my own daughter's dresses is definitely the best as they will be made with love & come straight from my heart. So if you are interested to join this giveaway for whatever reason you have.... don't wait till the last minute. Just go HERE . Who knows you'll be one of the winners! It's just a matter of luck! The best of luck to you & to me too...


p.s. This GA end on 31 May 2011 tau!
