Hootie Hoots For Nurul

Remember Fabrics Swap? My other swap partner is Nurul of Sew'much'Love. After some time, I finally made up my mind to sew these two for her......

Ehem.. ehem... let me introduce you to the new buddies of Nurul..^^

Hoping so much they'll cheer up her day...

accompanying her when she's sewing or studying....

will stay up with her... coz their eyes r always wide open... hehehe...

will be closer to her too...

sew in love...

huggable...

and yummylicious too...^^

Plus a hootie hoot green keychain...

kecik2 cili padi tau!

exclusively for Nurul jer....:D

So together, they are ready to serve their new owner...

with the 4FQs as promised...

Really wish Nurul will love them as much as I do...

**Thanks Jessica Levitt of 'juicy bits' for sharing her owl ornaments HERE and her free PDF pattern & tutorial HERE

**Thanks Suzanne of Just Another Hang Up for sharing her ideas HERE and the pattern HERE . Instead of making rice filed heating pad, I made an owl pillow... hihihi...

p.s. Sew in love with owls... Sew cute!

CRAFTY SWAP STORIES

STORY NO. 1

My sincere apology to Ayu from SWEETLILCRAFT COLLECTIONS who will receive my 'hasil kerastangan' late. Yeah, I know.. I know...I should send it by 31 Dec 2010 but hey! It's better late than never!

(yelah tu.... nak sedapkan ati sendiri le tu... iks...)

The first is the quick-no-sew card....

using only a piece of ribbon & felt

(tak sempat nak jahit.. jd tulis jer ler... hehehe..)

Next... the baby blue butterflies... nak tau citer BUTTERFLIES? Go HERE !

And the fabric tray too...

Kisah fabric tray tu ada kat SINI

Keychain pon ader... (denda lambat... hehehe..)

Before the make-up session... After touching up... Feeling guilty, I had to do something. I decided to sew this... It's a tissue wallet but too plain.. no pocket... nothing...
only for tissue lah!
(cik abe siap tegur....huhuhu...)
After thinking & rethinking for a few days & nights...
(wah, mcm citer Detective Conan lak!)
I sewed another tissue wallet for Ayu
(Hrp2 Ayu suke yer...:)

It's personalised for AYU jer ye...
Let's look inside...
Tara....
velcro tape jer... Ehem...Jgn tak caya... My first attempt in sewing a zipper in the middle of the fabric worked!

(tak ler cantik tp berhasil... yes!!!)
This is how it looks from outside...
LOVE & HOPE
for EVERONE!!!
; wink..wink..;D

So.... once together...
they are meant for each other..
meant only for AYU
whose fave colours are blue & pink..
(bantal2 tu props jer tau.... not for sale....ikkss....)

posing sebelum dibungkus......

Now on the way to the owner...

(legaaa...)

STORY NO. 2

I'm over the moon...

My partner Ween from WEEN GORGEOUS,

a talented young student who is very passionate in fashion & sewing...
(bodek nak free skirt... hihihi... )

made a bag for me...:D

Love it! Love it! Love it!

Thanks Ween.

It is reversible...

Either this look...

or change it to this....

My perfect stay back bag aka beg lambat balik!

(almaklumle... aktiviti sukan & kelab dh mula.... huhuhu...)

For more story about this bag...

p.s. Errr... Zura SEW RETRO CHIC...... bila nak buat crafty swap lg yer?

Butterflies....Really Back To School!

My hasil kerastangan.....

combination of pink & blue....

so sweet...

(tgh syok sendiri nih... hehehe...)

the idea is from one of the books I bought from

KAWAII STATIONS CRAFT SUPPLIES

It's another item for my swap partner, Ayu

from SWEETLILCRAFT COLLECTIONS

hopefully she'll love it

(yelah.. nak jahit beg ilmu masih kureng...hehehe..)

The butterflies remind me of the little butterflies

who performed on the 1st day of 2011

ehem.. my lil butterfly pon ada....

as usual.... bab posing mmg no. 1...

2011... my lil butterfly is in Year One... all smiles....

mentally & physically ready for school!

My 2 heroes, heroine & err...I

ARE REALLY BACK TO SCHOOL!!!

Soursop Ice-cream, New Year, Fabric Trays & I

Soursop ice-cream aka ais krim durian belanda....

hmmmm... yummy....

my fave lately

(mmg suka... suka... teramat suka.... ngeee..)

We went to Village Mall, SP just now....

Dinner at Chicken Rice Shop & bought d ice-cream from Daily Fresh..

See my contented face..... hehehe.... enjoying d ice-cream before the food arrived...
(d pic was snapped by my little angel, Raina)

The end of 2010... the beginning of 2010...
So I'd like to take this opportunity to wish
ALL OF YOU
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

Well, I was in Selangor & KL recently...
no sewing done though I did bring my tool box....
(patut le rasa keras semcm je masa mnjahit td... hikss..)

Besides visiting my sis, shopping was on d list too...
I heard so much about Daiso(rambang mata) & Craftworld(tak jumpa pon)
so I persuaded my Cik Abe to bring me there... hehehe..
(of course, that's another story)

This book is from Daiso... It's only RM5 but very inspiring!
(cuba tgk gambar sebelah kiri bhgn atas tuh... cantik, kan?)

My first attempt....
tersilap kira so rendah le pulak.... hisks...

tp cun gak...
(kena puji diri sendiri supaya lebih bsemangat!!! cewah!)

kain corak kasut tu?
Purchased from Kak Ros-Nykolett Curtains & Soft Furnishing
the pink fabric? Alamoda (Jakel) Sg Petani.
(saja nk bgtau supaya korang tau)

Terbalikkan....
ni le rupanya....

I was dissatisfied...
Thus, I made another one
maybe more after this....
by d way, if Ayu from Sweetlilcraft Collections happens to see this
I hope she'll like it coz it's for her....
she's my swap partner who's going to get my handmade item..
(berdebarnye...)


p.s. I should post it by 31 Dec 2010 but it's still here...
Jd kena tambah 1 lg buat Ayu... Denda sbb lambat...
Tak sama mcm fabric tray ni....Apa ye??? Tungguuuu...

Extremely excited but worried...

Receiving something is exciting

but sewing for someone

who is more experienced is worrying...

(mcm biasa le...cold feet...)

Takper... takper...

Don't panic...

(kalau sendiri tak sedapkn ati... sapa lg... hikss..)
