MY FIRST TRIM CATCHER!

BERJAYA!

I have succeeded! Bravo Rosh!

This is my trim catcher. Luckily TiniHani has invited everyone to join her in her Jom Jahit: Trim Catcher mission.

(kalau tak, takde le siap trim catcher nih... hehehe...)

From above....

Zoom sikit....

My trim catcher can be removed. That's why I used buttons.

(nak guna velcro tape tp tak jumpa... huhuhuhu...)

While searching for the velcro tape, I saw my elastic tape. So I got an idea...

Yup! My pin cushion is attached using the tape.

So this is the result of sheer hardwork...

I was thinking of a simple trim catcher at first but after a few times of trials and errors I'm glad I made this 'baby'....

Happy? Yes. Definitely!

Satisfied? Err... There's always a room for improvement. Seeing other people's trim catchers.... leaves me speechless.... Who knows, I'll be as good as them too... or most probably better... hehehe..

Once a dreamer, always a dreamer...

p.s. I used the scraps I bought from MyBotang Shoppe. Cun, kan?

p.p.s. The lining (the twinkle twinkle little stars fabric) is from one of the textile shops in SP. I have many more. Does it mean more projects?...hmmm....

Mende pe ni?

Nak buat cupcake pin cushion

tp rupa ntah pe...

buah ke?

tak kisah le

yg penting blh cucuk pin.

Lg pon cik Raina suka

si cilik suka... mama dia lg suka....

Sudah ada kawan!

Hari tu solo

tapi hari ni dah ada kawan!

Kena cucuk pin pon takpe

sbb member senasib je...

susah senang kita bersama...

hehehehe......

Pin Cushion For Me?

Well, I couldn't really remember who, where & when...

But the pin cushion...

gosh!
So nice!

So adorable...

Everyday

I've been dreaming of making it

at least one for me...

...just like the one I saw.

I was definitey on cloud nine

the moment I saw the fabric.

Such a beauty!

I decided to realise my dream!

And this is the outcome.....

I love the completed pin cushion!

Who cares if other people hate it!

(yg penting aku bahagia)

Yet.... as usual, it isn't 100% perfect.

(u all tgk le sndri hasil kerastangan aku)

the stiches...urgh!!! so ugly... an ultimate evidence of the workmanship of a beginner!

yg sebelah lg tu kira OK sikit....

a pink tudung girl on one side

and a red tudung girl...

on the other side!

but somehow

I dreaded the sight of the ugly stitches!
I couldn't bear to see them
so clear! so vivid! Arghhh!!!

This is the modified version

bracelet around her neck... hahaha

kapala pon kena cucuk....
Ouchhh!!!!
(nasib baik tak berdarah)

p.s. Raina claimed it's hers.... so memandangkn aku ni sememangnya ibu yg pengasih & penyayang.... maka akan ku buat satu lg "pin cushion" utk diriku sendiri... AMIN!!!
