My Life & A Death

Miss this blog but I'm hopelessly busy doing something else (ye la tu). Just want to inform uols I went to MPH just now, saw "Sew Hip!" (July, Issue 30) & grabbed it before somebody else took it.. hehehe... When it's time to pay, I realised the staff had reserved the mag for me. So if you live in Sg Petani, one "Sew Hip!" is available here! I've got mine.. legaaa..

I also purchased "CrossStitcher", "American Patchwork & Quilting" & a book "Ibu Kool Bapa Hebat". Yeah... I know.. action speaks louder than words but can't get over the BIG "M" (malas) & the BIG "G" (guilty) yet. Btw I'm on diet now & believe it or not I lost weight! Busy dieting, heh? No worry. I still eat my breakfast, lunch & dinner & still consume my fave dishes once in a blue moon. I believe in the theory that we don't have to starve to death to lose weight. What we need is self-discipline.;D

Did I tell you that I went to kak Corine's place last week? Err.. I don't think so... Guess what! I bought gorgeous fabrics to be added in my collection. Mmg cun!I just couldn't resist the temptation. Rambang mata! Next time I'll show off my findings. Can't do it now coz the aroma of laksa is too much to bear. Having a hubby who can cook like a chef is a dream come true. I'm soooo lucky! "Bunga kantan" is not added tau. So I don't have to worry about the after-effects.:D

p.s. 3 days ago, my form 3 student, Nor Hazrah Idris passed away. She & Atikah were on Atikah's motorbike & a van hit them from behind. Fortunately Atikah survived with a broken leg. So sad as Hazrah was fatherless (her father died because of cancer), her mom is blind & her only sibling, her brother in Form 1, isn't as bright as her. I went to see her for the last time. She looked so peaceful as if she's sleeping. May Allah bless her. Al-fatihah...:( Her mom is a very strong woman indeed!

My Mags

Sew Hip! I got it! I asked a staff about Sew Hip at MPH, Tesco SP a long time ago & guess what.. I've got a call from one of the staff, informing me the mag has arrived... aikk! baru jer nk order online, dh dpt... kensel ler... hehehe... Many thanks to MPH. Very efficient lol!pssttt... d orange funky messenger bag looks promising. Can try la.

This is another mag i like "Quilts and more"... Some others are in my messy sewing room... If only I dare enough to try quilting... if only i'm not a coward... (sigh!) :PAnd this is also my fave... Siap ada free gift lg... very2 interesting.
I'm searching for inspirations for baby gifts. Additional 2 new members in our family! I've 2 newborn nephews & though I've given them gifts, those presents aren't handmade... hehehe... Ntah ler... nothing inspires me... maybe i need to take a break for a while. Need to refresh myself! The truth? Those mags I purchased like crazy are my teraphy. Tak dpt jahit... jamu mata jadilah..

p.s. Tomorrow is a public holiday in Kedah. My Cik Abg is planning to bring us to Jusco Bdr Perda.... hmmm.....
